Take a look at our Alpha Pearl Mixing and Uses Page for more information

This project uses an Alpha Custom Color basecoat, bound in a special binder for pigment control, UV resistance, and excellent pearl suspension. The basecoat mixes 1:1 with an AR-30xx reducer for smooth application and consistent coverage. Our AP-7541 DTM Primer-Sealer provides outstanding adhesion, flexibility and fast drying, while the AC-4521 HS Glamour Clearcoat adds long-lasting gloss, UV protection and durability.

Project Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Complete your prep, body work, primer, and sanding following our video tutorials.
  2. Block-sand the exterior panels with 320 grit sandpaper and scuff door jambs, engine bay and tight areas with a red scuff pad.
  3. Blow off all dust outside and wipe down with wax & grease remover.
  4. If applicable, paint the door jambs and engine bay first, then wait 24 hours before moving on to the exterior.
  5. Re-mask and wipe down the project with anti-static wax & grease remover.
  6. Mix and spray one medium wet coat of AP-7541 DTM Primer-Sealer (4:1:1 ratio) using a 1.4 mm needle spray gun.
  7. After the sealer is 100% dry to the touch, wait at least an hour.
  8. Mix and spray your basecoat colour directly over the sealer (most colours require 2–4 coats for coverage/effect).
  9. Wait until the basecoat is dry to the touch before recoating.
  10. After the final basecoat is dry, wait 45 minutes.
  11. Mix and spray 2–3 coats of AC-4521 HS Glamour Clearcoat (2:1 ratio). Recoat when the previous coat is just tacky (fingerprints).
  12. Let cure for 12 hours in a warm, ventilated area.
  13. If wet sanding & buffing, leave masked for that process; otherwise unmask & assemble.
  14. Enjoy your newly painted project!
