Re: [DML] Facia's Glossy/Matte

["Dave Sontos" <dsontos@xxxx>]

[Moderator's note: Early cars, I don't have the VIN number cutoff in front of me, had a clear coat finish that gave the facias a high degree of shine. For whatever reason later cars had the finish minus the clear coat. I belive the paint formula was the same for both.]



The original paint formula will give you the "matt" finish. A lot of
DeLorean owners are adding a second clear gloss coat over the original
formula. Its a owner preference. Here is a link to my painting experience
including where to find a PPG paint distributer.
