I bought paint from paintscratch.com. They sent me ppg base and clear. base is deltron 2000. clear is duracryl dca-468. Do i reduce with automotive thinner?

 

You should follow manufacturer recommendations.

 

Where can I find that info?

 

ppg is closed til tuesday. can anyone help me out? i want to get this stuff today.

 

it uses a "DT" reducer and you have to use according to temp. so if it was in the 55-65 range good to use DT860 or in the 68-78 range DT870, then 78-88 DT885 and their slowest reducer for the hot days is DT895 but if its over 100 then you should add a lil DT898 which is a retarder

 

Thanks. I just got the instructions on it. Can you tell me if Deltron2000 dbc base is compatible with Duracryl DCA468 clear. When I was reading about them, no where did it say they were compatible. I think I just got bent over by paintscratch.com.

they are compatible. Not sure why your using a laquer clear with all the urethane's out these days but they are both PPG you should have no problems.
