    I have never used spies ,but when I used basf you could use over reduced ready to spray clear as a wetbed for blending.We always went 100-150% but I have seen some spies tds that recommend 300%,check you tds.

    is there a clear base coat binder on the mixing bank? That is usually all the basecoat blender is

    With standox solvent there is a clear base on the mixing bank (599) that is used in mid coats. I assume spies has the same thing different number. This base works very well as a wet bed/ blender. I have used it for that a lot. I reduce it 75-100%.

    iv only ever used a wetbed with water, and there was always a specific toner to make it with in the system, So, in BASF you could use over reduced clear as a wetbed? How did that work when it comes to tacking between coats? Once the base wetbed flashes its dry enough to tack. Would the reduced clear wetbed ever dry enough that you could tack he tween coats?

    Keep in mind you use ready to spray clear that is hardened and reduced up to 300%,you are putting on an extremely thin coat compared to a regular coat of clear.When it is this thin it will dry very fast,not sure I would want to tack between every coat but Im sure it would be fine to tack your last one with a bit of caution,a little accelerator added to the mix will help also.
