You are using the epoxy from SPI but when I looked at that product I couldn’t find anywhere that it said it was flexible. Are you adding a flex agent? What paint gun are you using and tip/pressure settings?
Thanks in advance. I have posted a few pics of my car and I’ll start a thread just for my project.
I purchased this car when I was 19 (40 years ago) and it still had Georgia plates on it. Very rust free car. I am going through it to take care of a lot of surface rust and to do some upgrades. Tremec TKX 5 spd, disc brakes, new interior, to name a few.
Very cool Dave! I'll watch for your new thread and follow along so others can answer your questions as well as me. I'll be interested to hear all the history and plans for your car too.
SPI epoxy primer is permanently flexible. No flex agent necessary. I used their clear as well and it doesn't need flex agent either. I use an Iwata LPH-400 with a 1.4 tip and set the pressure at the gun at 28 psi when spraying their epoxy primer.
