Mark,
I've used Auto Air (by Createx) on smaller projects - mailboxes, toilet
seats, etc. I am VERY impressed. On the show circuit last year I saw several
cars that were all Auto Air. They was no immediate discernable difference
between them and a urethane base clear system. You shoot your regular
urethane clear over the top (several tack coats followed by the wet coats -
I used DCU 2021 from PPG).
Check this out:

After the truck is done - I will be switching to Auto Air products for
future projects.
