    A customer phoned me about repairing some damage on his classic mini which was resprayed about 7 years ago at the time he bought extra bc&cc the clear is ppg d800 in a gallon tin with hardener never opened seals unbroken he is quite adamant he wants the same materials used so question is will it still be good till use or will there be problems? What about the hardener?

    Said to him wouldn’t be worth the chance and tried explaining it’ll make no difference to the finished job but he’s got a bad dose of the “customer is always right” disease think I will tell him if he wants me till do the job it’ll be with new products or take it somewhere else :hunt

    at that age i suspect you will opening a tin of solid activator ,the activator being the more reactive product

    its simple realy ,do a test spray with it ,if it sprays OK then anything else is the customers issue ,i certainyl would warrenty the job thats for sure but i have used 20 year old basecoats with absolutly no issues
