I used the SEM Marble paint before. Never used their base though. How long can you have your car at the shop with the booth?

^lol I went to the "SEM" school in North Carolina to learn how to use all there products. So if you have a questions just give me a call. It is good stuff, if your SEM certified they give a life time warrenty on that paint

When that stuff gos down it looks wet, dont worry just give it time in between coats and when it flashes off it will look right. Make sure you give it enough coats, its a single stage matted black so after one or two coats you will think its done because it will look covered. But since there is no clear you want to make sure there is enough paint for UV protection, you dont want to see you paint job to fade after one summer

Good luck man, good to watch it come a long Its good to see you picked out some good paint. Other people make a cheaper version off hot-rod-black but it does not look as good or last as long.

Yes dont worry about SEM there a great company! There have great stuff and go out of there way to help people. I just sprayed there trck bed lining at home for a job, in side the hole truck Made it water proof

The new waterbase stuff is good, dont let it worry you. It just take more air flow to dry it compaired to solvent paint that needs more heat.

Your doing the jambs now and then when it drys your going to shut the doors and do the out side? If you are doing it all at ones it hard, you will get dry spots from the over spray. But with the hot-rod-black I dont think that could really happen any ways. But its looking good man keep up the work, it will make you so happy when your driving it and you know YOU did the work.
