Hello Daivd,
I'm going to yield to your experience on this one --------- I only have used the less expensive version of PPG the Omni line. I will admit what you say makes since, and I will try higher reductions on my next bird, but I will still test it for myself first. I am stubborn as a mule, kinda like I have to see it for myself and then sometimes I still don't believe it.

Evan, no reason not to try high reduction in a test mod, then if you like what you see, shoot it for keeps.

Don't pay any attention to my reference to being brittle as that creped up in my head from the old lacquer days and adding flexers------ this new generation X'er stuff probably doesn't react negatively to more reducer------- David must know he is willing bet the farm on this one -----------
