Honda Candy Emerald Green Vintage Motorcycle Paint - Aerosol - Pint - Quart

Description

This listing is for Candy Emerald Green paint for the Vintage Honda Motorcycles.  This color is for many models including SL, CB, CL, MR, XR & CR motorcycles.   This is a custom mix that I use on my reproductions and when used properly will accurately mimic the Candy Emerald Green color.
.  When you order a Pint or a Quart of paint, you get a full Pint or Quart of paint that reduces 1:1 so there is double the sprayable material.
I sell the compatible Reducer.  Please see “Sellers Other Items”.
THIS PAINT REQUIRES A SPECIFIC BASE SILVER COLOR AS A FIRST COLOR, FOLLOWED BY THE CANDY EMERALD GREEN, FOLLOWED BY CLEAR.
I sell the compatible Base Silver.  Please see "Sellers Other Items".
As with any paint work, cleanliness & preparation are paramount to getting good results.  I typically sell the aerosol paints to people wanting to paint one panel of their bike.  For reference, it takes 5 of these aerosol cans to equal the amount of paint in a pint can.
I sell a compatible Clear in both Aerosol and Quart.  Please see "Sellers Other Items".
I sell a compatible Primer in Aerosol form.
Please see “Sellers Other Items”.

FAQS:
The paint you are purchasing is
PPG DBC
Basecoat / Clearcoat Urethane.
If you are not familiar with PPG products, you can find further information by searching “PPG DBC” which should help you with application and dry time questions.
Reducer:
If you are receiving the paint in aerosol form, there is no need to worry about reducing the paint.  Anything purchased as a pint or quart needs to be reduced 1:1 with PPG reducer.  In our shop we use part number 885 reducer.  There are other slower and faster dry time reducers available for your particular environment.
Candy Paint:
If the paint you are receiving is “Candy”, it will require a base color under the paint as the Candy is semi-transparent and picks up the color from underneath.  If you purchased Candy and didn’t purchase the base color, you will not get the proper effect.   I sell the base color in aerosol as well as pints or quarts.  It is very difficult to "touch up" candy paint jobs.  I only encourage full repaint of any particular piece of your motorcycle when candy paint is involved.
Clear Coat:
All of the paints that I sell require a clear coat after the application of the paint.  I sell clear in aerosol as well as by the quart.  If you are purchasing liquid clear it is advisable to add a catalyzer to the clear.  In our shop we use PPG DCX61.
You can find that for sale under “Sellers Other Items”.
PLEASE NOTE:  I CANNOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR APPLICATION OF THE PAINT AND ANY MISTAKES MADE.  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR ABILITY TO APPLY PAINT, THEN PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE THIS ITEM.  OUR PAINT SHOP SPECIALIZES IN REPAINTING / REFINISHING THESE VINTAGE PAINT COLORS AND WE GUARANTEE OUR WORK WHEN WE PREP, CLEAN, PAINT, CLEAR AND BUFF THE END RESULT.  IF THIS LISTING IS FOR A "CANDY" COLOR, THEN IT MUST BE APPLIED OVER A VERY SPECIFIC BASE COLOR.  IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE A CANDY PAINT WITHOUT THE PROPER BASE COLOR, I CANNOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE RESULTS.  I WORK HARD TO MATCH THESE PAINTS, BUT IT MAY BE BEST TO LEAVE THE WORK TO A PROFESSIONAL.  I CANNOT GIVE REFUNDS ON PARTIALLY USED PAINT.  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PAINT, CONTACT ME BEFORE USING.
