Nica, yes the color does lay flatter. He still wet sands each coat to make sure everything is completely flat. You can put as many as you want, but after awhile it will cloud. Also he sands inbetween each coat of clear, I have seen him put down about 8 coats of clear on show cars, alot less on race cars because of weight. Some show cars he has put more.
I have to agree with you about finding a good bodyshop, there really isnt that many its all about quanity because of the insurance jobs they do, plus people are as picky as we are. As long as they get the vehicle back and it looks close to what it was to begin with they seem to be o.k. with it.
