Question
Is Omni MBC base coat compatible with V-POL 20:88 clear coat?
Is it OK to mix brands of base coat and clear coat?
Thanks-
Kelly...........V-Pol will work fine with any base coat system per the website. I found information
at sam ditchek and sons web site.
Most manufactures of paint lines advise to stay with one line of products due to chemical make ups and compatibility issues when mix matching products.
However there are professionals who do prefer different clears.
Good Luck
Michael

| Comment | Thank you very much!! My mind is at ease. I feel much better about using the U-POL now. I was torn between advice of a friend and the manufacturer's advice to stay with like brands of clear and base coat. Thanks Kelly | ||
