Here are some pics of a camry I sprayed with Duponts Cromax Pro. I have no clue how to upload photos but i’m going to try so be patient cause I will probably screw this up!

nice looking job there. how do you like that dupont? what did you use for a clear
nice job ryan looks like that clear is layed down pretty good, nice and flat
taking no chances with the colour up the screen pillars as well top job
I used a new clear from Dupont called 74500 Chromapremier Pro. It’s a 15min bake at 160. I am pretty sure it’s a Spies Hecker clear as it smells just like all the Spies clears. The paintcode was 3K4 and it’s usually a very poor covering color. I only had 1.5 coats of color on it with waterborne. It came out with a few more nibs in it than I would’ve liked but I had these portable dryers I was luggung around the booth which I am sure didn’t help.
Also if you look close at the right fender you will notice a slickness indicator gauge by the headlight. It’s this new revolutionary method I have a patent pending on. It lets you know when you have got it slick enough!:lol:
Ding, I do not like Duponts basecoat at all. It just flat out sucks at coverage. It does blend very well and has good mottle control. They have some nice clears and primers though. My shop is switching to waterborne next week, so my coverage issue should be fixed.
Waterborne in kentucky.. Oh i dont like the sound of that:evil: 👿 👿
Bondoking, The shop I work at is in the highlands. I don’t know how much you know about the area but everyone in the area is pretty eco-friendly people. It won’t be mandated for years. Don’t knock it till you try it. I absolutely love it so far. The color match seems better and Duponts covers in 1 and a half coats. Even without any venturies it flashes pretty quick in a booth.
Here are a couple of pics of my own car I sprayed with Cromax. The pictures were taken from my Blackberry so the quality isn’t great.

No reason for this pic, I was just trying to figure out how to post an image on here without having a link. Does anyone know how to resize a picture so I can just attach it. Any picture off of my computer says it’s too big to attach. My 12 year old cousin just did it in about 1 minute and I can’t figure it out on my own now!

I like that color, whats the paint code???:woohoo: :woohoo:
I look forward to switching to waterborne, I had the chance to spray Duponts and it was nice….I’ve also tried glasurit and I don’t think ya can go wrong either way.
The paint code is 1C0 on a Lexus. Factory color, I just left out most of the yellow in the formula!
I would love to use Glasurit or R-M paint but the jobber in our area sucks!
Looks nice and slick:) 🙂
Tell us more about your “slickness” indicator gauge……………………..????
Look at the right fender by the headlight.
Just a run on the edge by the headlamp!:)
Uahhhhhhhhhhhhh, thats what I thought. I am going to have to sue you for patient infringement then……………………………………… I came up with this idea a long time a go :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
