Does anyone have any tips on or about the spray process of Viper GTS Blue Pearlcoat by PPG.? I wish to spray my Harley with this color. Any feed back is truly helpful.

Any feedback? One note, most auto paints look flat on plastics and glittery on metal surfaces. Sand with 400 grit, wash, dry, prime (metal or plastic primer), sand 400 grit, wash, dry, spray 2-3 coats Blue, in 30 min. spray with clear coat kits 2-3 coats. Next 2 days, buff with finest 0000 steel wool, apply several more clear coats.

Watch out: Clear coats can run and sag. This ruins everything. Avoid applying to much too soon. If dust is a problem. Wet down surfaces, walls etc. PPG paints dries quick so large bugs isn't a problem. I usually thin the paint 1 part to 3 parts thinner. Rick
