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.
