ACT II Paint Clinic


Auto Collision advisory board member Shane Olson demonstrated several different types of paint to the senior auto collision class. Students were very impressed with a primer that dries in 3 to 5 minutes and is ready to sand. Some students were interested in tri-coat candy colors for their senior projects. Prices on this paint can be as high as 700.00 for 2 quarts.
