Before hitting up the roadrunner this weekend, decided to pull the Coronet out of storage finally. Sure is nice to see the old girl back in my driveway...
Jumped on preping skeletor for primer in the jams and the engine bay
Went with the PPG Epoxy....
Spayed on pretty nice with a 1.8MM tip @23 PSI at the gun. Pretty thick stuff. Mixes up with a catalyst at a 2:1 ratio. Once dried, hard as a rock.
Moved on to preping the doors for paint. Scuffed down the e-coat with 400 grit and 3M scotch pads.
Decided to spray the doors and jams with single stage. That way once I have the doors and fenders on and aligned, I do not need to remove them again when she is at paint. The body will be base coat/clear coat. The single stage on the jams-inner doors cut out a little more work that would have been needed for the clear/base, but still are just as tough and look just as good.
This stuff sprayed on great. Real easy to dial in. 20PSI at the gun with a 1.5MM tip. Mixes as a 8:2:1 Primer, Reducer, Hardener. I don't know if anyone recognizes the paint code or not, but the 9300 is a premium Chrysler Black. OMNI is a pricey, but outstanding paint. You dial in and spray it right, it can easily look just as good as base/clear, before you even touch it with wet sand and a buffer.
