Let us know how the stencilling goes. My experience with the Painter's Touch 2X was terrible. It dries quickly and pulling the stencils creates a lot of stringy paint the ruined the job. The normal Painter's Touch is worse because it does not cover black well and you need a ton of coats. The first coat is on there for at least 30 minutes before the stencil starts getting pulled.

Thats what ive used for primer and the first coat of satin black (3rd to last pic) and its smoother than a baby's bottom after tack clothing it prior to painting. Im really liking how its turning out. That picture was still semi wet and makes it look uneven but after drying it looks amazing.

I should have clarified that I meant the quick dry paint is an issue during stenciling. The base coat can be any paint.

Quoted from bumpnthump05:

Well, i had a hiccup with the paint. The paint was cured and dry but i guess this spot wasnt adhered to the black when i pulled off my yellow stencil on the other side. Talked to Jeff @ Pinball Pimp Stencils and he said to cut some 1/8" strips of blue painters tape, and slowly tape the edges and then tape around that and spray some paint on it. Another set-back but i guess i gotta do what i gotta do.

Just curious about cure time. I was paranoid. The shortest wait time I did was 3.5 days. and usually 4 or more. Until it cures through to the bottom it will peel off. After 2 days it is only cured enough to topcoat but it is not fully cured.
