Thread: Painters, what's your favorite clearcoat?

Tweet

I used PPG for about 5 years, but I sand and buff every job, and it kicks so fast, that I couldn't get it finished before it was too hard to work.

After that, I tried a few different brands, and settled on R-M DC92 Diamont. It is highly adjustable for shop conditions, and dries slower, which makes it easier to sand and buff. I've used it for about 10 years. I've recommended it to a few other painters, and those who tried it, have stayed with it.

I use it over R-M, Sherwin Williams, X-otic and House Of Kolor "basecoat" colors. No problems.

And it has a nice sweet smell when you cut and rub it!

No compatibility issues when crossing products???? I've got a source now for some BASF products, not user friendly at all, but so far I like the product. I've only used some of the primer, and did one bike frame with their paint. Wondering if you had much experience with it?????
