If you only at 85% just wait, it's nice already. Good for you.

Re: My "Mator" build
I'm absolutely in love with that color! You said that's a single stage?

Re: My "Mator" build
Sorry, The interior is a single stage mixed to match the out side. They missed a little but you can tell unless your looking for it. The out side is House of Color 1125-1 Shimerinze 2. Candy red with a bronze intensifier. I wanted a red intensifier but I didn't get the numbers right. Oh well it is a nice color. It changes color from dark red to a real bronze color. Pretty cool. Thanks for the complements. It is a black base primer sealer 3 coats of base and three coats of the show clear.
