    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    The texture on the Marquee was all off compared to CARC, and as mentioned, it was significantly glossier. The e500 is exterior, which means it's supposed to be able to handle the elements, and the lower gloss factor may be interesting. Might be a good experiment.

    Possible. The 4300 was well cured. The Ultra Plus and Marquee were tested after about a week.

    Shows Ultra vs Marquee Trucks below are done in 4300 - M1031 had about 4 years on the paint, and the M1010 had close to 7 years, when the pics were taken. The second pic is the same M1010 in the first pic, but many years later. 4300 is ultra flat, and about the same texture as CARC. I found...

    It will quickly lose its color. My black turned pink within a couple hours of use.

    Marquee is not ultra flat, and seems to scuff easier. I've had zero issues with 180-220 grit over everything, then spraying 4300. No adhesion promoter or anything. The ONLY spot on any of my trucks that is flaking, is the door sill, which is a high wear area since I'm constantly stepping on it...

    That's why you use 4300, not Marquee

    I'm not a fan of marquee. Not flat enough, IMO. In one of these threads somewhere, I bought 3 tiny jars of the 3 types of Behr paint, all were supposed to be ultra flat. Only the plain jane paint looked flat, the Ultra(?) and the marquee both had a sheen that didn't really go away. EDIT...

    GO, soaked onto a rag then rubbed on windows. You can use grease, oil, any coating really. Let it dry a couple days, then wash the windows and you're good to go. takes a lot less time and money than taping everything off.

    It's a HUGE file.... If you don't let it download all the way, or your computer doesn't have enough memory, it can crash it. Save it to your HD first, then view it. Make sure it doesn't open in a browser and you should be fine.

    Make sure it's FEDERAL STANDARD 595, and not just any competitor lookup.
