I have to rant. So I got my paint from the shop down the street. Well he gave me the wrong reducer for the inercoat clear (ppg) so my work is fucked. He miss labled the ****. 18 hours of work down the drain. So my work shrivled. I have to strip off all the paint because it is like ******* bubble gum now Not cool at all. I just lost $360. I am heading down there tomorrow an raging up a storm.






I drank a fith beacuse of this ****. However I have a comittment to my customer so I must compleat the job

Damn that sucks!!!!!!!!

hyperryder

I know I have so much time into this job

Rachel fofc

That sucks man

They should replace the material and pay you to redo the job. I had a similar situation a couple years back and the PPG rep came out to verify that it was there fault. Then I had to give him an estimate on what it would cost to strip and redo everything. They gave me all the materials and paid me to redo the job. The local PPG reps have always taken care of me. Hopefully it works out for you.

Yeah i couldn't imagine........I'd be pissed.. i'm mad if my 2hr rattle can gets fucked up lol

hyperryder

Ya that $360 is only the material cost not my labor. It is the ppg dealers fault. How do I get In contact with a rep?

Rachel fofc

If he labeled that **** wrong he should pay for ur costs

hyperryder

I dont think dude will do it. He just dosent seem like that type that will honnor his mistake

hyperryder

I had some nice painted decals on it. They are ruined

Scott982

Call the PPG dealer and tell them that you need to talk to the local PPG rep. They should give you his number. If you can't get this solved send me a PM with the name of the dealer and what city it is in. I know a ton of guys at PPG so maybe I can help.

hyperryder

cool I will do that. **** just has me real blown

hyperryder

The shitty part is I have to have this done by next weekend. Not going to be easy!

Scott982

I know how it is. Paint work can be really frustrating when **** like this happens. Nobody understands how much work is involved and then what a pain in the *** it is to strip and redo everything.

I dont know anything about paint but you cant sand/buff off the clear? sand it coat it, sand it coat it until its all smooth? I dunno

Clear shouldnt be reduced more than like 5-10% max. Are you referring to the hardener?

I dont spray PPG but if it shrinks its definitely too hot or too wet.
