WOW! Cool stuff there. Car looks great!

West Coast Autocraft is giving me an insane black paint job. Heres his words on what they are doing:
Spies Hecker FP 1002 (2 coats)
FP 1002 mixed 50/50 with Spies Hecker 8015 clear (1 coat)
75% clear and 25% color (1 coat)
90% clear and 10% color (1 coat)
Spies Hecker 8015 clear (2 coats)
pull the car out of the booth and let it air dry for 3-5 days.
Wet sand the entire car smooth with 800 grit and put it back in the booth.
Spies Hecker 8015 clear (6 coats)
Color sand (800, 1000, 1200, 1500) then polish


Can someone explain why adding color to clear is being done . Do you get a sharper black out of it ?
Every factory black I have mixed up has had some white in the formula . I was about to eliminate it for a car I have coming up .Same result ?
Thats alot of mil thickness . Wish I could see it in person .

wow!! glad you are getting it done- I knew it would be a nice car! on to the finish line!!!

Congrats on the paint John, its a huge milestone. And those inner fenders are like jewelry

Hey John, have you seen the video of your car in the booth after it was painted? Chris posted it on his youtube channel. Check it out and post it up for everyone to see. :woot: :woot:
