This paint is easy to use and clean up. I’m a novice painter and achieved good results. A good idea would be to practice on a panel from a junkyard. It will help you set your paint gun and get your technique down.
Loved the kit, everything you need, nothing you don’t.
As you can see from the initial photo, I was dealing with the Notorious Ford performance Peele white paint. After surface preparation I applied TCP KEP DRM epoxy primer and sealer. Followed up with 2 wet coats of TCP performance white, mixed according to factory recommendations, with 10% of slow reducer. The product laid down perfectly and took on a high gloss finish when it dried and was beautiful. No issues with the paint, no orange peele or other concerns. I highly recommend the product, Excellent results for single stage system.
