Mike, I used gillespe 24087 on a Duce that I painted for a friend a couple
years ago and again it looked great . Probably cause I did the job, however
the last time I saw the truck, it looks like its going blue/grey. I think
the answer is to add a substantial ammount of black to whatever paint you
are using. Experiment a couple weeks before the big shoot to find the color
you want and let each color cure . I also think that keeping these thing
under cover helps the paint hold up longer.
