ppg? whats that?
If you used a good primer, the paint should last over a decade, paint does not cover or adhere well to unprimed surfaces without loading it on and thats not good, evetually big thick chunks peel off. paint is like knit sweater, when the vehicle (oil, water, etc) evaporates the film locks together creating a bond, what it is bonding to is very important, good luck |

| yea i know i should use primer. but from the factory they did not use any, and that piant is 40 years old. so whats wrong with that picture. the last couple i did repaint with enamal 3 years go and the piant starts to separate. like big cracks, even using clearcoat on it |

| I use rattle cans and my paint has lasted at least three years with no failures in adherence. It is starting to fade but I can freshen it up with some Mother's machining compound. |

I bought my decals from maplehunter.com as a kit and they didn't come with the fuel tank sticker or the air cleaner sticker. |
