I'm really liking how that Corsa Gray turned out. Did you have any problems with the two paints reacting to each other and did you have to wait a couple of hours between coats?

Surprisingly they didn't react...really got lucky though, should of shot a test piece beforehand. Nope, 3-5 light coats within 5min of each other. I hit it with a low temp heat from a hair drier right after each coat.
Not sure if its the right way but it always works for me, then let it cure for the next couple days.

Glad to hear you had no problems with paint compatibility. I've stuck with only Tamiya PS because I've been worried about that issue.

I've been doing the hair dryer trick as it's not been optimal painting temperature here.
