I painted the engine tins using that method and you can set them in the sunlight and there is no pink hue, just bright red. As far as the expert. Hes been doing it for 30yrs. This particular Napa store, has the most elaborate paint system in the area and supplies over half the paint&body shops, plus dealers in the area. I know of two hot rod shops that use this store for custom paint mix. So he must be something right. You stated that you are a professional painter, of what? Just curious.
