For me,it comes down to ability,,but,the quality of the producy helps..Don't know what you guys have up there,,but I am a firm believer in Spies Hecker,Standox,(,same company now anyway),,owned by DuPont,,also a good product..
A couple of years back,I repainted a friends Chev pickup,,in Nason..The Nason clear coat went on a dream,and rubbed back and polished real easy..Truck still looks good today..I am using nason at various times,to paint the plugs,before I start molding,,and even the solid colors impress me with the way they flow..Real easy to polish up.. Am using Duxone clearcoat on the wifes Customline,,and the stuff's brilliant to apply..Will find out later what it's like to polish. What it comes down to,is,the more prep you put into the job,,the better the finish will be..I have seen people use cheap enamel,and by the time they have finished,,it's lookin good.. Depends on how far you want to go..
