Tom Kren Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 Ok where should I go with this? Should I clear or not ? I like how it looks but think it would look good in clear too what would you do?
george 53 Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 It's your call Tom, but that's SUCH a nice color,I think a clear coat would REALLY make it POP!!!
Chillyb1 Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 What is that color and the paint? I just yesterday painted a body with a Plasti-kote automotive touch-up lacquer that is very, very similar. It was too humid and my paint blushed like a ... well, it blushed a lot. I'd like to know what you used in the event that I can't finish my project with the paint I still have. Anyway, to your question. Agreed it would look good either way, but I think a little clear would look better in the end.
Ddms Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 Back in the day, there was no such thing as a flat finish, except for primer. Everything else about that car screams KOOL KUSTOM KAR, so... YA GOTTA KLEAR IT! Ddms
Peter Lombardo Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 If it were mine, I would not clearcoat it. I am willing to bet that you have many, many customs that are nice and shiny....this will be pretty cool if it is flat...just my view. Either way, I am sure it will look great.

Hi Tom Not sure about your paint supplies or spray equipment, but if it were me, I'd add a little "Gold Pearl" to some good urethane clear, and airbrush it. You'd not only get a "GOTCHA GLOSS" , but beautiful "Gold Highlights" from different angles. Just my 2cts
cruz Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 I have the perfect remedy!!!! Do another one w/ the same color, clear coated and display it next to this one!!! Come on Tom!!!! You know this!!!!
Ryan S. Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 I like it the way it is, my vote is for leaving it that way. The flat is a cool look. Tom Kren said: Ok where should I go with this? Should I clear or not ? I like how it looks but think it would look good in clear too what would you do?
RodBurNeR Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 hmm I kinda like it suede! nice wheels for this one too!
cruz Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 You should've not asked this question here, you will be even more undecided by the time this thread ends!!! Think about it, clear, leave it as is, clear, leave it as is, it's driving me crazy!!!
