Doesn't peel off after a few years like base coat/clear coat and look like a bad sunburn/blister peeling off!![]()
My painter used Sherwin-Williams Acry-Glo. Single stage catalized paint. Goes on easy, levels out to a beautiful gloss and is tough as nails. Doesn't peel off after a few years like base coat/clear coat and look like a bad sunburn/blister peeling off!![]()
The infamous years of peeling automotive paints (late 80's early 90's) are, chemically speaking, ancient history.
Exactly! funny how old wives tails still linger in a lot of aviation.
Peel off? Where are you getting that info? From the painter who wanted to use a single stage because its easier for him? The old ways are not necessarily the best ways when it comes to anything chemically based and regulated by the EPA.
