Took a break from the stang to get the falcon going again and decided to re spray it while I was at it. The only I thing I dont like is the paint dried with streaks on all the top surfaces. I have never sprayed this product before so I am going to play with it and figure it out so this doesnt happen again. http://s175.photobucket.com/albums/w124/jaw66/falcon/

It is made by a company calle Kustom shop and it hot rod flatz black. It is a single stage urethane paint flattened to give a primered look but have the protection of paint.. The scallops are a base clear.

I did a scuff and shoot on it. Left door handles and all on it. It is a beater. I taped everything off so I could spray all the jambs at the same time. Put one coat on the jambs shut everything and just rolled with. It has more dust in it than I would like but hey what can I expect from a 6 hour job start to finish. This is just something cool to cruise till the mustang is done(the I actually care about how it turns out).

I paid 150 for a gallon kit it included 1gallon color 1quart hardner 1quart reducer. The primer is nason 2k primer not sure of the product number and dupont chroma premier sealer. If I can figure out why the stripes appeared after the paint dried and how to avoid it I would recommend the paint. I am wondering if I should done a drop coat on it as I was spraying the last coat. One thing is if you shake the paint when mixed the paint will blast out of the can when opened. Only mix it with a mixing stick.
