Clear coat....

That's interesting. I've thought of creating a flat finish that way but was shot down when I suggested the possibility. Do you have a thread?

I'd like to do a flat paint job on my Dart. Here's a few factoids I came across. Flat paint is made by adding talc (talcum powder) to what would otherwise be gloss paint. Talc is magnesium silicate. Soapstone is mainly talc.

I read differing reports on the care of flat paint, whether clear or single stage ranging from easy to painful.

SPI makes a flat epoxy black, the only one that has UV inhibitor making it reasonable for topcoat use. Sealed up my Duster with it. Sprays easy.
