    Default DuraCoat experience?

    Does anybody out there have much experience with DuraCoat products? Specifically, I am interested in the aerosol application of DuraPark and how closely the "WWII Green" matches the color OD Green of a P80 frame. This build so far, is parts I've accumulated, and I'm trying to reduce the mix-n-match effect of different colors. Would I be better off going with a matt black?

    FDE is so 2011.

    I used it a few times, always thought it was too finicky, too thin- too thick, too much hardener, too little hardener, too flat, too glossy. Always seemed to take a few days to fully cure.
    Always much happier with Norrels Moly Resin. Single component, shake it, shoot it, let it dry an hour, bake it let it cool and your good to go.

    I'll check out Norrels. I've seen some of the bake on finishes and think those sound better but as I might have to paint some plastic/resin pieces, I'm hesitant to try anything I need to put in the oven. I'm curious about touch ups. With bake to cure do have to refinish the whole part or just let it air cure.
