Can comment on the PPG. The Primer has a catalyst, mix it up and wait for a 15 minute induction period then spray. Can recoat after five minutes. Then have a two to three day grace period to shoot the topcoat (can't recall which). If you wait longer you will have to sand and respray a primer coat or the topcoat won't adhere. Two parts primer to one part catalyst.
Need to wait 30 minutes after applying the primer to shoot the top coat. The top coat has a hardener and a reducer. The paint supplier will supply the correct reducer based upon temperature range. The ratio is 8 parts paint to one parts each of hardener and reducer.
Both the primer and top coat went on easy. I used a cheap gravity feed gun with 40psi @ 6 cfm. 1.4mm - 1.5mm nozzle will shoot both.
I estimate about 1/2 gal of each to shoot a tractor and total cost should be around 260$ Both available in quarts or gallons if more needed.
Both Primer and topcoat will clean up easily with acetone.
Fumes and contact with your skin are dangerous! Your paint supplier can educate you on respirator and safety requirements.
The finish is a nice gloss. You can wait for the paint to cure and sand and buff this product to a high gloss finish. Prep is everything.
PPG number 60080
