A good friend of mine has become a distributor for Sikkens products and has been asking me to try the Lesinol line, so I did.

For anyone interested. The basecoat sprayed without a problem. It does stay open for alot longer than any other brands I have tried but does lock up well within 20 minutes. The recoat time is within five hours with solid colors and 24 for metalics which is something I'm not used to but worked OK. Mix ratio was 2-1 which gives about 25% less sprayable product than most brands but the pricing is still competative. I'll have to try this on a complete auto repaint and monitor it's life to fully evaluate the product but sprayabilty is good.

Hi Bob,I'm glad you like the lesonal product it is top notch and not a value line product.I did my friends 56 chevy with their bc/cc 2 years ago and it looks like the day I sprayed it.At our shop we use sikkens and u-tech and we have really been impressed with the u-tech.Keep us posted on how you make out.
