BTW, good point, HBar!
Ventilation is a must, respirator (fitted) is a must, also.
NJ, my paint job is going on three years old. Aside from a small spot by the DS headlights that is bubbling (must've missed a small rust spot), she looks as good now as when I first sprayed her!

Wow, what a thread!
I am inspired! I should consider a beat up 80's SL maybe
Since we haven't built the spray booth yet I'm going to spray out side. The real reason I invested in it was to use water based paints. I'm not a big fan of brain damage. Spaying in MD out side can be tough, but I have done it as long as the humidity is right; I learned the hard way to check the weather BEFORE you paint.

Painters usually use around .8 size nozzles for clear. Old pro's get away with 1.0 or even 1.2 to shoot clear.
Modern clear can be applied when the color paint is stuill wet.
Original Mercedes paint is made by Spies-Hecker, Glasurit is pretty good as well.
Spies Hecker may be owned by DuPont, but the paint quality differs.
There is a rumor of DuPont clear having a dendency to yellow....
LOL, I told you that red 190E is gonna make you do some crazy shit
We got rid of that piece of shit. The owner told me he was going to short me $50.00 because the ignition has "some key jiggle action, dat it didn't have before".
