for the firts time you should do some scrap pieces to get the hang of it.
every one has a diferent way to do it
what's best for you ,it's what works for you
here is what I do
pre heat to 150
powder first half from top to middle
cure for 15 minutes
let cool to 150
powder secound half from bottom to middle
cure for 15 minutes
let cool to 150
powder the clear and fully cure
I've been able to make some great triple fades with clear this way
the trick is to know when to stop or you'll end up screwing it .
P.S if you want a metallic red you might want to rethink red over white
red has to go over chrome to achive metallic red . -
sorry i made it unclear. i'm not making a fade, i'm just putting 3 coats on. i heard that the bright white helps the tans.red stick out more. but thank you for the reply. i'll use your advice for the future when i'm ready to try fade jobs. thanks.Comment

may be ol school here................i cure all my coats before shooting the next one...just me...........theres a fine line when the melt starts..and the cure starts....ya got to remember that your dealing with a powder and many powders have different sets to go by...it aint like rattle can..wait a few a blow some more on it....my thought is...if I've taken the time to do it.hell might as well do it right..........but then again.....i'm gettin old....im thru taken chances...Comment
