    If they adjust your color it should be fine. Thats what a painter in a shop would do with a mixing bank.

    It is not a good idea to become junior bench chemist. Chemical engineers at paint companies design a system to work together and a certain way. Trust me you or anybody else that paints cars knows more than they do. You can get away with using one brand of base and another clear, but that can even bite you in the ***.[/quote]

    ryanbrown999,

    Thanks much for your advise.

    I wasn’t trying to do it, and it was just a question for curiousity. I have good understanding on the unexpectable chemical raction, so even I will try it later, it is NOT gonna be on my RX350 ………… but, maybe a fender for like a 94 whatever car that I can afford to try just for the heck of it. :lol1

    Im not sure how dupont works but SW uses a base coat stabilizer not a reducer. I would just bite the bullet and spend the money on the SW mid if you get good matches with it. Quit messing around with this and get it sprayed 😉

    :lol1 waiting for my paint to get back from jobber for sparying

    Just got sooooo interested in auto painting, and got too excited :exci and curious on everything. that is why I got many questions to ask …. sorry, guys

    Too bad that SW doesn’t sell pearl in less than pint ……. I still got my pint of pearl for Acura almost full in can, but sitting in garage and collecting dust. $120 worth :pinch: of dusty can, but they sure did match pretty well on that car. I heard that you spray nothing but SW, how’s the matching??? Maybe next car I spray I will give them a try again.
