> Hey Tom, Good info. I never knew they had a clear with a hardener right in the
can! I do have a question for you; just curious as to why you started with a
silver base? BTW, I haven't messed around trying to figure out the wiring to my
battery yet. I go on vacation for 2 weeks soon so be prepared for some more
questions! Thanks as always! Jack

> My local paint shop stocks this process and can match the color and then
inject it into the spray can. The urethane clearcoat has a hardener cell inside
that is broken to release the hardener when ready to go. I just used one can of
color on each CL125A frame and will still need about 1/2 of another to finish up
the color coat. Each can is about $35. including the clear. You can see pictures
and read how I am doing mine on my website: http://www.spookyto ms.com/SpookyTom
