<DIV><FONT face=Arial>No complaint on the quality of the stuff. Our
airplanes (full size air carrier Part 135) take quite a beating, both in the air
and on the ground, and Imron was the best there was, at the time. On
my El Camino, after many years, the stuff started curling up around
the edges, and when it did, adhesion was so good that it peeled off the
factory paint, primer, etc. down to bare metal. IMHO, that's real
adhesion. But, again, (my opinion only,) I wouldn't use it; I prefer
something with less risk potential.</FONT></DIV>

received several warnings, appropriately so, from this list. Imron
should not be the first paint that you spray if you have never sprayed
before. (I wouldn’t spray it all without proper respiratory
protection) There are safer paints to apply with similar
qualities. The warnings that you have been given are correct.
Imron gives off more polyisocyanates than most other paints. These are
dangerous and can cause respiratory trouble. I am an ER doc and have
seen it several times most often from “hobby” type
painters.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

the car painting guy to seriously "lay it on" with out fear of runs or
overspray. Unfortunately laying it on an airplane increases weight. A thicker
clear coat will not really protect your plane better than a thinner coat, so
it is just weight. Adding more reducer (its really a blend of different
solvents) will allow for thinner coats, less overspray, but can increase
runs. </SPAN></FONT><BR><BR><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The reducer like I mentioned is a
blend of solvents, and all of this 100% evaporates and has nothing to do with
the urethane chemical reaction that cures the clearcoat. You can add as much
reducer as you want without reprisal...except from the EPA, which I doubt will
go after an individual pattern guy...but I could be wrong. So once you
are comfortable with increasing your local pollution level...add that 200%
reducer!!!</SPAN></FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
