I am considering using TSC Majic gloss black "truck, tractor and impliment" paint on a pick up. Yes, I know I'm cheaping out, yes I probably should drop $500 for a quality paint system, but I can't so I'm looking for some information on the paint I actually plan on using. I found the paint, $24.99/gallon, hardener ($15) and a Majic.reducer, but I'm wondering if.the reducer is simply pre measured mineral spirits? Is Majic reducer all you can use? I have a nearly full gallon of "Crown" mineral spirits that worked just fine with the gray Majic primer, and I would rather use that unless it will cause real problems.
I plan on doing 2 or 3 shots of color, but do I only use hardener for the final shot or each coat. How does this affect wet sanding? Majic doesn't really seem to say much on can or website. The hardener is high price for the amount, is there a cheaper catalyst that is compatable.
Edit. I downloaded the spec sheet, and it says "solvent=mineral spirits" but later says use only Majic reducer.
