[QUOTE="Mr.Bolt-on, post: 10325793, member: 113371"] Tinted clear coat red, is simply just a colored clear over the red. It's quite pointless, and I have no Idea why ford thought it was a good Idea, because clears fade the fastest. Solid colors such as this have no purpose in having tint over them, except maybe to skimp on making an actual new color. Also, tinted clears should only be used over candies. Point being you start with a gold or silver base coat, then you shoot on whichever tinted clear you want to get the color Red, green... then you apply the actual none-colored clear. Anyways, I paint cars, and just wanted to let you know what it really is. Torch is just Base coat/Clear coat. Very easy to spray. With a solid red, all the panels you spray must have equal amounts of layers, or you'll probably see a different shade on the panels. The average person who has never painted a car before probably couldn't tell the difference. Anyways, this is how you should spray all the panels regardless of what kind of paint, with equal amounts of coats. [/QUOTE]
