BASECOAT PAINT MIXING RATIOS
Thoroughly mix four parts Low-VOC Urethane Basecoat with one part Low-VOC Urethane Activator. Use Fast (50308ZP) for small jobs, or temps below 75°F; Medium (50309ZP) for small jobs, or temps between 70-85°F; or Slow (50310ZP) for large jobs, or temps above 80°F. Keep in mind, other factors, such as humidity, air flow and total film thickness should also be considered. In many situations, it will be useful to add 10%-20% 50104ZP Zero-VOC Reducer to aid sprayabliity, flow and leveling. Remember, this is an activated basecoat system; only mix as much as is needed. Pot life is about 2 hours at 70°F.
PAINT GUN SET-UP
HVLP Gun: Fluid Tip 1.2-1.4 mm Inlet Spray Pressure 8-10 psi
Conventional Gravity: Fluid Tip 1.2-1.5 mm Inlet Spray Pressure 40-50 psi
Conventional Siphon: Fluid Tip: 1.3-1.6 mm Inlet Spray Pressure 40-50 psi
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Apply Low-VOC Urethane Basecoat color in two full medium wet coats with a consistent 50% overlap pattern. Allow five to ten minutes flash time between coats. Flash time should increase if additional coats are applied. Most colors will cover in two coats. A third and final coat may be applied to set even metallic pattern. If required, apply this light coat immediately after the previous full wet coat, moving the gun with faster passes, from further away. Mist basecoat onto the wet film until the metallic pattern is uniform.
Basecoat should dry dust-free within 10-20 minutes. May be lightly sanded in as few as 20 minutes. Wait at least 30 minutes before wet sanding. Wait 45-90 minutes before taping on the fresh film. All dry times are approximate, at 70°. Temperature, air flow, total film thickness and other variable may extend these times.

Color OK, Drying Speed Too Fast
Paint appear fine, used in conjunction with Eastwood's Slow Activator & Eastwood's Slow Reducer. Way too fast, almost un-usable. Hard to keep a wet edge. This isn't a mixing issue, it's a base formulation issue. I made it threw the job but the drying speed was a big issue. I'm not a rookie, I've used this 3 years before and it wasn't like this.

Questions & Answers
How many cans will I need to spray three coats on a 77 corvette
2 kits should be ordered then; especially if planning to do door jambs and under hood.

How do you decide which activator speed to choose from? Between the fast medium and slow??
This is all based upon the temperature range you would be applying in. If you have further questions please reach out to us directly by calling 80--343-9353 or by emailing tech@eastwood.com

What all would I need to paint my already primed ready to paint, base/ clear coat. I live in South Carolina, is there a kit for everything I would need, and about what would average cost be. Thanks Tim

Does this paint require breathing air or will a good fitting respirator do?
You would need a respirator with organic vapor cartridges to protect you from the fumes. A fresh air mask is not required.

Can your paints be tinted to match factory paint color? If so , do you have what's needed to do such?
Our paints can be combined with other colors in the alike paint formula (SSU or Base coat). We can not match or cross reference to any specific make, models, or codes. The colors we have are made specifically for us.

Painting my solid one piece, flip-up tonneau cover to match my truck. Need basecoat, 1-Qt, GM laser blue Metallic, 21-218M 12346786 with activator, and medium reducer? Having no luck trying to find it?
None of our paints are designed to match specific vehicle brand color codes. Some of our colors may be close but not identical.
