    Fatman is there a reason you moved to the automotive? Performance, price?

    The automotive powder paints cure just like pro-tec and the price is way better plus its fun to mix colors.

    There are only a few actual Mfg's of powder paints, but each seller will have their on density and Pro-Tec has it closer to how you would want to use it! Some colors don't take cuttings no with clear as well as most, like Chrome I would add clear! However address no Clear makes it a lot easier on the fluid bed and has no impact on the color. The best thing you can do is buy a pound of clear from Rosey's in the 200% Gloss and max that will kit for your colors and it will help thin them and make the colors last long longer!
    Also remember if you want the Green Chartreuse, Pro-Tec is the only player for that color! It happens to be the color I use mos too so buying it by the pound is the only way I get that one! Well truth, I buy them all by the pound, but for sure the Chartreuse is used a great deal!

    Dunno about Doug, but it's about all I've used. Those guys get big discounts bc they have to buy so much to do the job. A pound to them is like a teaspoon to us.
