what you mean. The hardener is expensive too and does not last very long
either. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

anybody tried Auto Air Colors? I am curious about this product for our
purposes. It is a water-based paint that is available in lots of colors,
metalics, transparents, opaques, and it is available in 4 ounce
quantities. I used it once to paint a foamy, and that worked out
well. I would use it on my next pattern plane if I thought it would stick
to the gel coat surface without a base coat sealer. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=125522801-14042005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>It has
some interesting qualities. For example, you can use most any clear to
cover it, and the clear can be applied days or months after the color
coats. It is ready to use without reducer. It is much safer than
Concept. It is compatible with urethane primers, paints, and
clearcoats. On the down side, it dried exceptionally slow without heat,
was more difficult to prevent bleeding through the mask, and did not cover very
well. I think it is good stuff, but not as easy to use as urethane.

<DIV>Oh yes. I was hopeful that you'd found a non catalyzed white when
you said single stage, but now I get it. With the hardeners and mix ratios I
can not really mix up less than about 1 oz, which is a lot of waste when you
are spot priming. I found a non-fuel proof gray primer, but that's far
from ideal. </DIV>
