Re: WGDGPS how many coats can be layered?
We shall see. Car show starts Thursday and runs through Sunday. 2000 plus cars. I am leaving at 5:30 saturday am to be there by 7am to get a spot on the pavement.
The shop I had paint it wet sanded the hell out of it. There is an excess of clear because they buried the white lace paint so you don't see a line where the colors lap. That being said, there is no orange peel anywhere to be found.
Hoping all my work and effort pays off. If I get time, I will post up a full detail of the car with products used. If not, Ill get to it next week so you guys can tell me what else I could have done

Want a winning show car finish? Pinnacle Souveran for a deep wet look. Souveran will give you that pool of wet ink everyone with a black car is looking for. Not to be confused with Liquid Souveran, this is a paste wax.

Liquid Glass is alive and still kicking... on my shelf and on auto store shelves/Amazon. Too bad it’s outdated and painfully bland by today’s standards.

OMG - I used to use Liquid Glass back in the day on this same car before it was restored some 20 plus years ago. It was expensive back then for whatever it was but worked great a little went a long way

If I remember correctly that was a product where they advised to layer, the more coats the better. I never felt I got the desired, and claimed results, and believed it was just hype. Only ever bought it once, then it sat on a shelf for probably another 15 years. The can looked cool though. LOL

Re: WGDGPS how many coats can be layered?
Then there was another product that I used for quite some years, but I was commonly not using it on my rides, but on my Overhead Garage Door!
Some of the old timers here might remember it, it was called Nathan's Liquid Lustre.
This was a product that used to frequent the car show circuits way back, and I think there was even some TV Commercials for a short while. I know there were vids.
Spray paints applied came right off with another application, starting fires on the hood, strong acids eating metal off the hood but no damage to the paint, etc.
Believe it or not, it worked very well as far as paint not sticking. At the time I was having a bit of a Graffiti problem with the little gangster clowns tagging the Door, (In Chicago) either with spray cans, or black liquid shoe polish.
After learning about it, I seen Jewel Food Stores was selling it, which Nathan (or the guy demo'ing it) once told me they never did, at the price of $5.99 a pint bottle. Nathan was charging $18 a bottle at the shows, but gave a discount I remember if you bought 3 or more bottles.
I think it is still made. (Sorry folks about speaking of a non-AG product, you may delete it if necessary)
