Default Paint??

Has anyone used that paint that comes with the clear coat put in it? How does work and what are some the things that need to be done so it comes out good?

Not sure a buddy told me that it isa paint that has the clearcoat put in it already. So all you have to do is put on the paint and its like its been clear coated already.

I believe that is true. I think it's just called a single stage paint. You just spray it, wetsand it, and polish it. I do believe.

ya its just a single stage like PPGs concept paint. you dont want to use it with metalics or pearls cause its really really hard to to tiger stripe it.

it definately wont match the rest of your car. Im assuming your talking about the single stage Dupont paint, "Nason". it wont look nearly as good, just do it rite, get the two step system. basecoat, then clear coat. you will be much happier. But if your on a budget, then do as u please.

Its not that, Im getting the whole car painted with a lightning paint job in several months. I was gonna get the whole car repainted red but figured y dou that when ill be changing it in short time. But my bumber is trashed and I have a new one but its primer black. So I am just gonna paint the bumper myself.

thats absolutly wrong. concept can be mixed to match any solid color and itll match perfect. and Dupont has a great single stage too like concept that will match perfet too.
