<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Steve,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I use the DCC and DBC. These use the same
reducer.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The DBU it is my understanding it uses a different reducer
that has some sort of catalyst in it. Doesn't make it like DCC where its fuel
proof but it must use that special reducer.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>When I buy the paint stuff I stick with the DBC and DCC as
I know them. Don't really know too much about the DBU as when I asked the
questions I got told by my local paint girl....for what you are doing and using
DCC, and DBC don't get into the DBU as it won't be the same to work with.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>She said its a good paint but its different and she said
stick with what I know...the DCC and DBC stuff is great and I use the 2042 speed
clear. I have no trouble mixing and matching the DCC and DBC
stuff.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I usually spray the entire model white DCC so its fuel
proof, then mask and shoot all color as DBC, then clear it with the
2042....</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>If it is an Flower Power model then DBC all the way its
lighter and you can get just enough clear to make it shine. Another option is
the acrylic water based paints at Wal-Mart or the craft stores. I have mixed and
matched these in doing touch ups on the Oxai models. The paints spray well with
an air brush and then 2042 will protect them from fuel.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>There are about 6 million colors to choose from. And its
water based stuff so clean up and mixing is easy...If the yellow needs a
little more orange in it...cool add some and then try it out...I have found I
can get colors really close and its cheap only 99cents a bottle.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Radio South shows 2 different paints as base coats one is twice the
price as the other I take it that the Concept is DCC and is then the
basecoat/clearcoat DBU at the higher price. But PPG product manual show a
different reducer for DBU, but does list a DBC which is a basecoat only that
uses the same DT reducer as the DCC. Tony is at Toledo so a can't reach
him.</DIV>
