Hi Guys,

Looks like I will be shooting a big Harley next month. Owner says he is willing to pay for a high quality clear. He complained, and I quote "the coat the other guy put on the bike it seems that it was very slow curing or it was the cheapest he could find." I have not personally seen the bike but I am thinking that it was more of an application error than the quality of the material but have no real idea.

I know there are some very expensive clears out there but are some markedly better than others? I have only used PPG Omni MC262. Considering it is a bike that (I assume) is stored indoors and only rode in fair weather, is there a better clear for this application?

I like the Euro Clears, they cure harder and more scratch resistant.
