Nice work... you've really accomplished a lot. You should be very proud.

What kind of paint and primer system are you using?

Thanks...

For the underside I started with Dupont Veriprime (recommended from a fellow member). Then reapplied the undercoating with U-POL Gravitex Plus. www.AutoBodyDepot.com has everything I have needed. U-POL looks and feels the same as Wurth SKS but is less than 1/2 the price. I ordered 2 lt. and the application gun as a package for $25.

For the paint I am using PPG. I painted my last 911 with Deltron (DAU Acrylic Urethane) so I plan on doing the same for the 914. The base I am using PPG K38 primer. All of the P Sheets for PPG I printed off of www.tricitypaint.com/docs.html

That gives all the compatible products and spect for the application. The only thing I have not decided on is if I want to use DELGLO DAU 82. It is a clear that can be mixed 1:1 or applied as final coats to the paint. I am going to swing by the supply shop and ask. I will see how that goes they don't like dealing with D.Y.S. people and they are the only ones that sell PPG.

My Dad flies in today so I bet we will get a lot done. I might have found a body shop that will let me "rent" the spray both on the weekend after hours. I need to pick what COLOR I am going to paint this thing...

Is there a BAD color out there on the 914??? Every color I look at looks good...
