==Application== #If the existing paint isn't peeling or doesn't have large amounts of [[rust]], then no [[Epoxy primer|primer]] is necessary. [[Sand]] with extra fine grit sand paper, wipe with a clean cloth and apply JDBB paint. #Final gloss depends heavily on how well the paint is mixed (better to over mix then under mix). #For spraying with an HVLP gun, use a 1.4 or 1.5 tip. #If a primer is needed, JDBB primer is recommended (it's available in spray cans, quarts, and gallons). Wait 36 hours after applying primer to apply paint. #John Deere thinner is needed, at a mix ratio of 8 parts JDBB paint:1 part John Deere thinner (The Blitz Black can recommends a mix ratio of 10:1 paint to thinner). #For faster-drying and harder paint, John Deere hardener can be used. It's available in pints. When using the hardener, the mix ratio is 8 parts JDBB paint:1 part John Deere thinner:1 part John Deere hardener. #Spray one light tack coat, wait 10-15 minutes, then shoot the full wet coat. #Wait no longer than 3 hours to apply a second coat. However, one coat with the 8:1:1 paint-thinner-hardener ratio should be adequate. #A gallon will easily cover a small car.
