Seems like this would be the best hope of replicating the nuance of my L13M Saturn yellow that was badly missed with its previous paint job. But, I can’t seem to find anyone who can source it or much less has experience with it.
Anyone out there in 914 World have experience, advice, or sourcing tips they care to pass along? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yellow914.JPG) |

Is the question about single stage Urethane or more about that brand specifically?
Depending on how long since the car was originally painted you’re going to find differences in both color (due to sun fade) and EPA mandated low VOC reformulation. I’ve run into both on my 914 project and on other projects as well. On the whole, Urethane is no big deal to work with other than the need to be way more careful about PPE. Other than that, it comes down to finding a distributor and following the tech sheet for mixing, underlying paint compatibility, etc. BASF is major player in paint business - should be able to find someone supporting it. Note: I’m trying to navigate their site and can’t seem to find the tech sheets other than SDS material safety so less than impressive on that account Overall - I wouldn’t mess with it unless you spray the whole car. Blending - color matching a spot repair against aged paint is a black art. Once you are in for a whole car respray - honestly I would move to PPG for ease of acquisition, ease of finding tech sheets, ease of support. |
