Hi Bob and Keith
Thanks for the comments - even though it seems that I cannot spell
undercoat. I have stripped all the undercoat away and was planning on
first epoxy primer and then the single stage paint that they mixed for
me. That's the paint I used for al the underside of the shell itself.
I had not thought of using the base-clear combination. Bob, do you
think the single stage would be enough or do you prefer, would you
recommend, going to the base-clear combination?

Dave, look at the manufacturers spec sheet, and see what it says about
clear coating your single stage. On my T-34, I used Concept, and had to wait 4
hours before I could add a clear coat over it. This is what PPG recommends
for a bonding time (for the clear I was using), to allow both to grab to
each other. Some paints allow you to add some clear to your final coat of
single stage color too. You just have to check the spec sheet. I actually like
adding a separate coat of clear though, treating the single stage as a
base coat.
