Unless it's a pretty cool color it seems like the deep blues and reds are more rewarding for me. I guess they give me a bigger dopamine hit 🤯🤯

Hi Trigger, well that looks awesome lovely colour and the finish from the clear is outstanding, I don't think you would get a better finish if you was using the more expensive paint apart from the longevity might be better🤔 I use the Kapci paint here Trigg and I'm lucky enough to have a paint scheme (seeing as I'm a hobby painter) so I normally use Kapci primer, base and clear which is regarded here as a mid range product, the base mixes 1:1 and IMO it goes on nice but like most paints there are a couple of colours that don't cover so well, I'm not sure if you can get the Kapci paints but they might be worth a try👍John UK

@@thetriggerman954 Have a National Paint distributor close by and gave the Numix line a go a couple times now seems decent and cost effective. Dude at the desk was telling me its durable as the sand blowing in the UAE is hell on their paint........interesting to see how it stacks up. Cheers :)

@@ot7694 yes I sprayed Sherwin Williams when I worked at the Chevrolet dealership. It was solvent base. Color match wasn't good but the paint was great to spray with covers good, and metallics were effortless. But always had to blend because of color match.
Dupont good stuff. I got a question Trigger . Luxe and all. What paint code would you consider the absolute best Black. Black of all Black paint. Thanx.

If it's jet black I like Mercedes 040 it seems to be the blackest black in my opinion. Some blacks have lots of red mixed in them and it seems like the Mercedes 040 is always the blackest in most paint systems.

I used to always use chromabase base coat and nason clear. I just tried to amtech clear and it's kinda thick and dries fast. The van I just did has some orange peel. I'm about to try the REVOLT products. Have you tried any of them?

No I've never heard of revolt, This BMW was sprayed with the Am-Tech as you can see it lays down pretty good Maybe you need to bump up the pressure a little more but I really like it.

@@nyronjnobaptiste8536 I've been using it for 11 years. Trust me man if it were garbage I would have moved on to something else loooong time ago. It's decent clear. I've never had a car come back for any issue. Takes a few gallons to dial it in but once you get it it's a winner. For the price of course there is much better/ expensive stuff out there.
