Re: paint job



Ollie, its good to know I'm not the only one with un-popular
opinions!  8-)   Not many understand when I say basecoat -clearcoat
done to a  mirrir finish , doesn;t look right.  I am using single
stage Urathane, and my friend-painter said he now only knows how to
paint the BB-CC.  So I am takeing it to an older painter that has no
problem doing Urathane.  He charges about #20 per hour and does great
work. I love living back in the sticks!........................MO
