HOK Questions

It all depends on the primer. If the car is completely covered in primer and all the same color, I wouldn't seal it or base it in white/gray. (Some people seal, some people don't) I've never used the FBC colors you mentioned, but if they cover well, then you'll be fine. I don't think the FBC's are transparent, so coverage shouldn't be an issue. I like as little film build as possible. Iso's are bad if proper preparation and PPE(personal protective equipment) aren't used. Use a fresh charcoal respirator(or fresh air, if you have the means) and make sure you have adequate ventilation(not too much to suck the paint of the car) and you'll be in. Most importantly have fun, I really enjoy painting.

When I did the materials list on the Australian HOK site, they didn't include sealer. Just 7 quarts of BC--04 and two mixed gallons of KP2F primer

Because I did alot of painting in my garage, I wanted to use as little coats of paint I could to keep the "dirt" out of the paint. That's the main reason I don't use sealer. Just make sure that your base coat covers well.
