Ford Cayman Blue Metallic | DA / 6487 | 1991-1997 | OEM Basecoat

Repainted the hood and roof of my ‘97 Ford Ranger. I am strictly an amateur car restorer and only paint something every couple of years. That said, I found the Tamco paints to be excellent! The 2K DTA primer flowed very well with 1.4 tip and it sanded easily the next day. I had zero runs or sags and it laid very flat and smooth. I used the same tip to spray the base coat with the same great results, great coverage with 3 coats and zero runs. I switched to 1.2 tip to spray the clear coat and the 4100 also flowed very well and was easy to apply. I waited 4 days for everything to cure and breath and then cut and buffed everything. I had some minor orange peel ( equal to factory finish) but the cut and buff made it all like glass. I am very happy! The OEM paint is a close match to the original and I am sure I can blend it with other panels if I am ever inclined to. But this is my run around town truck so not really worried about it. I’m looking forward to using Tamco products again soon as I move closer to painting my ‘34 Dodge hot rod and repainting my ‘75 Corvette. I’ve used plenty of other paint brands and have to say this was one of my best experiences. My only criticism would be about the packing. None of the product leaked out but the cans arrived pretty dented. Very happy overall, thanks for the great service and quality paint! Dave
