Right after I posted this I noticed the list of problems w/ clearcoats
i.e. chips. I did get these on the 84 Caravan (LBC Support Vehicle) but
the 75 Midget went away with a BIG chip in the front end from a 76 Dodge
Coronet not too long after the primo paint job. I had full coverage and
the insurance co. took it away. I bid in the auction (it just needed
wings and lights) but the son-in-law of the primary insurance dude out
bid me (???????) by $15. Oh,Well probably would'uve had to paint out the
little chips soon enough later.
