    Went to shoot the two tone , ordered single stage and when I shot it turns out they sold me base coat. I've never shot base-clear so didnt have clear to finish it as its only my 2nd time painting. Thought I was done but now have to start over. 10 hours sanding ,taping, and making a temp. booth in the garage wasted. Rant over , sorry.

    The paint shop gave me the new paint for free, or should say no extra charge. I wish I would have had some clear, I would have given it a try.
