try master pro clear its a 3 to 1 ratio i have used it on motorcycle tanks and it works well easy to shoot and mix as far as lasting is yet to be seen but so far s complaints and i plan on using on my truck. They sell it at oriellys auto parts. I used 35 PSI and 18 to 20 inches from surface then baked it worked great. Just make sure you give a lot of cure time before recoats.

Just shot another panel. This was the panel I shot yesterday. Had a few little flaws, wet sanded 1000G, Reshot >
Stats: 64 degrees, 1.3 tip, 28# at tip, fan open, product 1 full turn from lift.
Clear 4:1. Distance 9-12 inches Came out the best so far. Thanks all who have contributed. I'll try to get a pic

Sometimes you can spray a light coat of plain thinner over dry spots to blend them in. You can't wait too long though, this will actually "melt" the first coat and give it it's gloss.
