What part of the country are you from? I have used PPG products for years, but am not familiar with DP 25. The white epoxy we use is DP 48 LF. I like the color. Which HOK candy is that?

Graphics can take some time that is for sure. When you get that done it will be a cute little thing. Is the accents chrome or black. I guess I can wait and see when you post the completed job.

tom that is a bananza downdraft booth. 1.5 million btu main stack for the bake cycle. we can bake at 160 degrees. spray cycle we generally run at 80-85 degrees. it will bake an automotive finish in 30 minutes, with cooldown, an hour and a half and its done and ready to buff. the natural gas bill is a killer on this one tho.
