Medicine_Man Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 You can do a acrylic base with a 2 pac iso free clear over the top, thats what we did with Teddy's KE70.. (base must be dry before you apply the 2 pac). Quote

(base must be dry before you apply the 2 pac). Maybe thats where i went wrong i was doing acrylic base with 2 PAC color on both projects, i really was having more success with plain old acrylic. In the past i have had some issues with shrinkage I was told to use high-fill two PAC undercoat then acrylic topcoat for my next project What do you think? The Hudson is a total aluminum body as well. Edited February 2, 2009 by KE30_KE35_KE55 Quote
Johno Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) I'm a painter but not a car painter. I'm forever ringing up my panel beater for questions about painting. He told me to paint any rusted surfaces with Acrylic Etch Primer then two pack undercoat on everything followed by all other coatings with 2 pack. If you go to any auto paint shop, (ie. sells paint). Ask them for info, if you buy paint of them they will be happy to give advice. Edit. Oh yeah, nice old car! he he. Edited February 11, 2009 by Johno Quote
