Editing John Deere Blitz Black paint

Is it considered to be good paint? Is a specific primer needed? Is reducer needed? How many coats are needed? Does it apply like paint? Would a clearcoat adhere to it? John Deere Blitz Black paint is popular among hotrodders because it provides the flat or suede look of "rat" or "traditional" hot rods, with a durable finish. It's weatherproof, and blocks UV light, where a bare primer would soak up water and oils. It's also considerably less expensive than typical paints used on hot rods. Although John Deer Blitz Black paint can be applied with typical paint equipment, John Deere recommends using their own primer and reducer. The paint and the primer are typically $20-25 dollars, and the reducer is about $15. They are also sold in spray can size, so you can experiment with various primered or bare metal surfaces. ==Alternatives to John Deere Blitz Black paint== *Asphalt (#MQ2818) with Egg Shell clear coat (#P-FKT600)and , produced by [http://www.color-rite.com Color-Rite]. == References == *[http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/john-deere-blitz-black-31993.html Hotrodders Bulletin Board discussion]
