*Be wary of striping, thought to be caused by the reducer drying too fast. To eliminate striping, some people recommend using regular enamel reducer instead of the John Deere reducer, for a slower evaporation rate.
+
*Hold the gun at a 90 degree angle to the surface, and keep a 50% overlap.
+
*John Deere Blitz Black paint can't be applied to high heat areas such as engine blocks, headers, or pipes. And, it will not retard rust.
+
*Some people report success applying it to fiberglass.
+
*Urethane primer or epoxy primer may also be viable as undercoats for JDBB paint.
+
*Some say that JDBB paint is subject to fading and chalking over the years.
+
*According to John Deere, yes, you can paint over JDBB paint with another coat of primer and/or enamel paint.
+
*Opinions are mixed on using a clearcoat over JDBB. Some say that it can be applied if a flattening agent is used. For a glossy look, wet sanding and buffing are recommended.
