Thanks so much! For the Advance, I usually thin 5-10% with water and add some Benjamin Moore extender as well. I am using a 3-stage Earlex with a 2mm tip. For the paint, I wait a full day in between coats. I lightly scuff sand with 320 or 400 between coats and then vacuum and wipe with a microfiber cloth before the next coat. I usually do 2 coats of paint on top of 1-2 coats of primer. For the clear finish, I use a 1.5mm tip and that stuff doesn't need to be thinned at all. That can be re-coated in 4-hours. I scuff sand with 320 or 400 between those coats as well. I do 2-3 coats of clear depending on the abuse it will get.
