thanks guys, found a pic of the bed to show. The color is Guards red (Porsche red), type is BC/CC, Dupont Chroma base and Transtar clear. Spent the evening trying to figure out where all the wiring harness and duct air/vent duct goes under the dash.

Hey Kid,
How much did you reduce that Transtar clear?. Did you use the 4.0 clear?. That stuff is THICK. I'll be using it again soon but this time going to reduce it. My last truck came out like Glue and had to be wetsanded and buffed 3 times.

Kid · 01-18-2003, 09:54 PM

hey 70C10, I used the 4.0 and reduced it with urathane grade reducer. Didn't measure it tho, just poured until it looked good. Some where around 15 percent.
