      HOK Questions

      I'm painting my first car. I've done a lot of research and decided to use House Of Kolor paint for a few reasons. 1. I can avoid using isocyanates. 2. It appears to be a very good paint that will give good color depth and shine. Being a novice, will stick with the Shimrin base coats and clears. I will avoid the fancy stuff. I have a few questions to get started.

      I'm considering FBC-04 Strato Blue or the KBC04. Should I avoid the kandy base coat and stick with the fine metalic? I know the KBC04 requires an SG base coat first.

      I prefer to paint the car disassembled as it will be easier for me to get all the jams and interior and have no tape lines. Base on other posts I've read, I don't know if this is a good idea?

      The Australian website has a tool to calculating the needed materials. It doesn't list the KS-10 primer sealer as needed, but the tech sheets say it should be the base coat for the Shimrin bases. Is the KS-10 needed or can I spray the base coats on top of the KP2CF primer?

      How much primer would I need for 2 coats on the interior and 4 - 5 coats on the exterior of a 71 Nova? Also can this primer be safely applied of the EDP primer on the new body panels?
