    yes i used that to but you need to cut and wheel it soon or it will lockup in time and it will be easier to wheel out a cement driveway the stratoclear 2082 buffs up like butter .i turn my friend on to it he did a carbon fiber table and hammer that clear on the carbon fiber and sanded it out he just could not believe how well it work out

    Hey HRP , I have used PPG for 30 years now with no problems .
    I shoot DBC base coat , but liked DBU better ( but its getting fazed out ) , and shoot Global D893 clear over the top , it rubs like butter . Have not had any die backs since using it , and have been the painter at the local Cadillac , Pontiac, Buick , GMC dealership for 14 years now , I would of seen some come backs due to die back as we have a life time warranty on our work .
    I have not used K200 when PPG introduced K36 (I dont like the yellow under my paint jobs , looks like crap when the paint chips especially if the top color isnt yellow ) , but since have switched to the DPS 3055 primer when we switched to DBC , and went to the DAS sealers .
    We will most likely be switching to Envirobase (PPG's waterborne ) by the first of the year .

    I dont like 2002 , 2021 , or 2042 as when cooked in a heat makeup booth at 140 for 40 minutes , and if you dont get to it after a few hours its like buffing a piece of granite . Glad you were successful with it .
    This is a job I did for my buddy in DBC & Global and is unbuffed , it was just coming home from the paint shop and he is wiping the mist off it before we pushed it in the garage .

    Looks great! The job I am doing is on a Shelby Mustang clone....white with the factory blue stripes, so it won't show off a gloss like the red & black! :-(
