    I've been using Kirker finishes, did the DeSoto wagon exclusively with their products, from primer to clear and was very happy with the results, and the minimal damage to my checking account. Here's their post with my car, note they tag H.A.M.B. too...

Yep, that’s a single-stage urethane topcoat, adjusted with ULTRA-LOCK Metallic Effect Stabilizer/Base Converter (UA-2400), then cleared.

If you know him, please tell him to reach out to us; we would love to send a Kirker t-shirt to say thanks for Show…

    Looks great. And thank you for sharing. I’ve used the 2k primer on a frame and suspension components and was very happy. I was considering using in on a roadster body I’m building because I to want to keep the damage to my checking account to a minimum.
