Spray clear over the wet red and you can handle it in an hour.

But then how long does it take for the red to dry under the clear???

 

Some of the smaller parts on Dino were Rusty spray bombed. That was the first time I did it Mikes way with the clear. I was amazed at the difference. Don't wait for the final coat of red to dry. Immediately after doing the final grab the clear and hit it. It dries fast and the finish looks deeper. As he just said as I was typing this I think it mixes with the red and everything dries faster.  The finish even feels better.

That's what Madge @AMC RULES does & he's the rattle can queenie. They look good in pics but how's the scratch resistance? 

Every time I picked up the dammed clear I got bubbling and start over.

Didn't you say you have to use their special reducer that was unobtainium?

No he really doesn't ... think he's addicted that stupid FB now. Maybe we should round up a posse and go after him ... bring him back from the dark side. Used to be we couldn't get rid of him. 

 He started a page/group or whatever there called cool wheel horse pics.

I'm still ticked off at him he wouldn't part with those nice HLs he had on a pull start tractor with no battery at he BS.
