Ok. the body spent the night in the purple pond. Acrylic clear came off all the way to the base coat, real easy. The lacquer clear coat was harder to get off but a small wire brush convinced it. Funny, the Lacquer silver base coat stayed on. Conclusion? The base coat was on a couple of days before I painted the yellow. The lacquer base coat had a couple of days to "dry", "set" or "gas out" , whatever. ALSO , the silver base coat made the iridescent seem to have a "blue" tint to it. Left the front white. Seems the yellow was a better shade of yellow in the front. Take notes, put in book for future reference
