A new rep has started around this week and is doing the full hb body line and is doing some good deals to get people to try it and am just wondering has anybody any experience of it? I’d guess at the price of it it’s prob not great.
Thanks
MalNever heard of it. But I guess I would have to try it to find out, So pick something up and tell us about it tell the rep to give it to you for free to test out.
They have an extensive catalog they may make other brands that we use under a different name. Also I dont see anything bad happening from it except saving some cash.
HB Body claimed to be the next big thing a few years ago
Tried a few of their products and did not like any of them
I found their wet on wet primer (sealer) to be very gritty
I found their clearcoats required a lot of forced heat to make them cure easily thumb marked the next day, certainly would not airdry.
Rattle can primers like gnat’s piss
Never met anybody who rated any of their products, sorry sounds harsh but that is the reality of it.
My painter had a big prob with their sealer that you are supposed to be able to use over nonsanded o.e. panels, he painted a new tailgate the car came back a month later the bonded rear window had came out. The sealer had let go from the o.e. non sanded primer when they looked at the back of the glass the window bonding material was fully cured and you could clearly see the sealer all the way round, it just had not adhered to the unsanded window aperture .

I would agree with you about their wet on wet primer (sealer) that stuff was awful. Their clearcoats were all labeled scratch resistant to try to get around the new regulations too, ms pretending to be hs 😆
I wouldnt trust any paint companies claims that their primer can be applied over non sanded o.e primer. The few minutes it takes to knock down the primer in preperation for epoxy and 2pk primer is much quicker than havin to strip and redo a job because of failed adhesion 😉
They are bottom range stuff, clear coats crap as said above. i think its easten europe crap
