Re: Finally the bed is done

Re: Finally the bed is done
Did it take many coats of base for full coverage? I have not used the Shopline. I priced Viper Red in DBC and it was $830.00/Gal which I can't justify.

Re: Finally the bed is done
viper red looks very close to the san marino red I used on my truck. That's going to be a whole lot of red when you get her all back together. People will see you coming!

Re: Finally the bed is done
There is only 2 coats of base and 3 of clear. It covers really well, most was covered with the 1st coat.
