After reading several auto paint threads I wanted to see what others have done laying out multiple colors using base coat/clear coat. Most product sheets (PPG and SW) give a maximum time of 24 to 48 hours before clearing your base. After spraying several fenders as a trial to the plane it became clear to me that I will not be able to spray the whole planes primary color, install the tail and cowling, lay out the stripes and mask the whole plane again, spray the stripes and clear coat the final product within that time window. This process will probably take me a week. BTW wings will be shot at a different time from the fuselage as not to confuse.
I have read of something called intercoat clear, but have no experience with it. Anyone that has laid out several different patterns using base clear care to weigh in would be appreciated. Also I plan on applying PPG Deltron base/and high solids clear.
Thanks all
