    Nice video! Can you add flake to this? Would you just spray flake after in some clear? Thank you

      Hey There! Thank you! and thanks for watching. Short answer: Yes, you can add flake, pearl and effect additives to the paint and then clear it or spray a "mid coat" of clear with the flake, followed by a finish coat of plain clear.
      Long answer: Metallics flow out and lay out better in basecoat/clear systems. The paint on the video is single stage, sometimes the additives tend to move around in single stage paint causing it to look uneven. We have a base/clear video coming out soon to show you. Remember also that repairing metallic coating it's pretty difficult, so protecting your base with clear will make any repair job a lot less difficult. If there's something specific you want to see, let us know and we'll make a video about it! Thanks again for watching.

    Is two coats at the same time recommended by imron? What about solvent entrapment/pop?

      Hey there! Great question. When using the 18900S Performance enhancing reducer, the application of the first coat and cross coat is wet on wet without any flash time in between, per the technical data sheet. No need to wait and do a traditional "second coat". one walk around the boat and you're done. Remember that using this reducer changes the mix ratio of the paint to a 3:1:1/2 per volume, compared to 2:1:1 per volume when using the traditional reducer. Thanks for watching btw.

    How do you remove silicone of the rub rails

    • @merrittsupply
      @merrittsupply  6 месяцев назад

      With a razor blade and Debond formula. You can score the sealant and apply Debond to help it release. Then peel and scrape off. Always do a test spot to make sure it doesn't cause any adverse reactions to any surface.
