Just a quick note you can roll your shopline primer there’s a tech sheet on it. A skim of dolphin glaze two coats of roll and your done
Nice :stoned
Its looking good man you do nice work awsome color
It does a nice job I think they consider it a epoxy hybrid blue paper definitely less dirt but it also won’t let urethane soak through as far as rolling its not for large areas definitely takes some practice to keep from getting a edge but PPG has good info on rolling saves alot of money in masking and material but its not for everybody
In omni its the 270 that yellow’s after about 10 months for that matter just got reimbursement from PPG for 2000 clear yellowing after 8 months wouldn’t even replace with same clear gave me 4000 instead as far as denibing I use nort dry ice then trizact then presta 2 step system probably about a hour on something bad I am one a man band so I only average 20 cars a month so I spend a little more time on final details than some. A good primer for the money is Montana dtm put the light on 12 minutes and ready to sand I like to roll it masons 2k is nice to but I don’t roll it if you can get ahold off it I strongly recommend Montana’s light speed clear probably one of the nicest eco clears
There are a lot of guys on spi forum that familiar with this line and seem to like it USC also bought matrix
nice job cool color scheme
as far as sealer that’s your call with plus or dbc I use deltron primer no sealer no problems
the die back issue shows in your clear later on now if your following the flash times and then some and using the 2-1 clear you probably wont see this or if your buffing we vary rarely buff just de nib and if you rush the Omni system it will die back a little another note the 4-1 Omni/shop line production clear will yellow on you
the dt reducers tend to stop omnis problems to die back later on now the plus does still seam to have chiping problems but I only see this when using the sv primer but Omni/shopline undercoats are not the greatest but when your doing real world bodywork not corporate fender swapping with a unlimited check book these lines will perform the job remember most of these guys wont admit that on the weekend when there working cousin sallys car at home they use these cheaper paint lines unless they BORROW PAINT FROM WORK !!!!! another thing to watch for is the Nason line will be adding alternates to there system
It is going be popular color position or standard but I have been vary impressed with usually if its not blendable its a odd import color or one with a vary odd flop in that case do two coats with plus and a final with dbc so the man don’t get all your money they even use the same balancing and binder clears just lower price mix them the same to make dbc 500
Nope still PPG and omni but that could change if my local store doesn’t get there act together or my customers find out I use DuPont on my personal cars :headsmack:
Ok here it goes matrix is a knock off of dbc right down to mixing formulas so if you had dbc you know how matrix is going to spray but you don’t have ppgs color research that being said if your not doing mostly hi dollar collision repair but looking for better quality and over all color match you could go with omni plus same as shop line plus just different labels I use omni plus 80 percent of time and dbc the rest except I use dt reducers all the time and dx57 to activate get the same coverage as dbc in the same amount of coats for alot less money but no variants you can even mix try coats guy down the road has transtar and with variants still not bendable
