Single stage vs basecoat clearcoat

[@raybates3119]

For solid colors, the overall depth of single stage is hard to beat. An old school trick to help with gloss and maximize uv protection is to mix your final coat 50/50 with a compatible clear coat. Mix each separately first, then combine them.

With that accent you have to be from east coast, either PA or NJ or somewhere in that area I’m guessing but I’d say PA. Great video, also!

Hey Marco, new subscriber here, how close is the single stage to GM U8555? Do you have a urethane clear I can shoot over it?

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Hey man no point in clear coating single stage in my opinion. If your going for show quality yea this does work good however not 100% nessisary

[@LukeFisherGAS]

My concern is more of durability, actually

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

@@LukeFisherGAS then just stick with the single stage and don't clear coat it. Single stage is more durable than clear coat

[@alans9411]

how long do you wait between coats

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Single stage about 15-18 min depending on weather , clear coat about 5-15 min depending on what clear I'm using

[@jd8230]

Did you add a high gloss hardener with the single stage?

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

I use the Hardener it comes with

[@knottreel]

Did you use a reducer in the single stage?

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Sometimes I add a splash of reducer to help it flash better , or if it's super hot I'll add a splash of slow reducer to help it flash slower
