Good clear coat .... what do you suggest?

[stanclub]

What are the good clear coat brands that experts can suggest??? If money is not an issue, but wanting to have excellent quality, longevity, and especially the watering clearity is the most!!

At local, I have choice of PPG, Dupont, Transtar, and SW ........... I do have choice of other lower end brands, but I want quality.


What do you guys think of them???

If money is no object I'm a big Glasurit fan but with the brands you mention I'd probably go with PPG or DuPont.

I probably started using it about 20 years ago but I didn't use it almost exclusively until I started painting mostly Porsches and MBs. Now I price most of my work to include Glasurit products but I still do some less expensive work where I'll use cheaper products from time to time.

Sikkens superior 250 or Autoclear HS plus gets my first choice,next would be Glasurit 923-109,Spies or debeer or nexa autocolor.

I haven't used Sikkens for a while, the last time I used it I found that it got real hard real fast and was very difficult to sand and polish after about 48 hours. They may have changed in the last few years and one of my main suppliers is one of the biggest Sikkens dealers in the northeast so I may give it a try again.
