Hello,

I base coated and cleared all 15 pieces of the corvette at 6am on Sunday morning. I base coated it black and noticed a few pieces of dirt here and there. I wet sanded it out, shot some more base coat and then cleared it. Two coats of clear is what PPG receommends and also the Paint shop. Its a high solid clear that I am using. I did not realize that and started to shoot a third coat of clear after a longer flash time. The clear started to wrinkle on the targa top and I stopped. It did wet sand out so it turned out ok. I am using a medium reducer. I beleive it is MR186.

I now have the car in the paint booth. I jacked it up and removed the wheels. I will have it taped up and will start to shoot the primer on it tomorrow evening. I will keep you posted.
