    Our beautiful California paint has no hardeners, and the clear coat wants “two weeks to cure”.

    I still don't understand your choice in paint. I've never used a paint out of a rattle can that took more than a couple of days to cure. Most are overnight & good. Even automotive paints out of a spray gun don't take that long to dry. Heck to get them powder coated is quicker than that.

    Nice I know that car well. Had 2 GSRs. I have literally fully disassembled every part of that car except for the transmission.

    He's already made every excuse he can. Can tell he's running out of excuses with the paint drying one cause he also has one of those industrial heat lamps used for drying paint. ;)

    Oh these trucks are surprisingly capable of towing. My 4 Cyl did fine when I towed an E320, Civic, and my new toolbox.

    More pics of the Integra!

    Although I outsourced towing my 5-lug home to a Chevy Tahoe. That thing can tow.

    I’ll take a picture of the can when I get home. It’s wheel paint from PepBoys.

    I do have an auto/body infrared light though, should speed up the curing significantly.

    No need I think you've already posted about that Duplicolor paint. Duplicolor is nothing special, just expensive. Buy a different paint.

    You know you are going to keep getting crap from us everytime you post a pic of your truck or talk about it until it's done. :p

    I want to say Duplicolor? I’ll have to double check.

    Zane took a picture of his can of Rustoleum Self-Etching Primer and it contained Toulene, while my California sold can was different and instead had Petroleum Distallates as a substitution.
