Paint fading was - New paint saga content

["Kerry Pinkerton" <pinkertonk@xxxxxxxxx>]

Good question and the short answer is nothing. I've only had one car that
was silver and did not like the way it held up but this will be base/clear
and I'm HOPING the paint is better.  If not there will be "Son of paint
saga" down the road.  The main problem I'm noticing now is that when I get
the straight Urethane on a little too heavy the pigments tend to pool and
you see a darker spot.  Easily fixed with an airbrush but a pain nontheless.
