Re: [alfa] Clear Coat on Alfa Red Paint?

["Dean W. Cains" <dwc@xxxxxx>]

Hi Ray:

Well, I've also got an '87 Spider Veloce, and there's no clear coat over 
the "Nero Pastello", so I don't imagine there'd be a clear coat over your 
"Rosso".

I can't say anything about the metallics, though, other than I wish I'd 
found one to buy at the time I bought the black Spider, either that dark 
red or blue/gray.

Regards,

Dean
