TAMCO CLEARS

HC-7677 No-Wax Clearcoat

HC-7677 No-Wax Clearcoat offers the ultimate in gloss and DOI with medium to fast dry times. This clear will give a show-car finish without buffing and applies easily, levels fast, and uses a simple 4:1 mix ratio.  This clear is the most durable clear that we make and passes 20 year test for durability!  4000 hour UV testing (max) and is very chemical resistant - including SKYDROL!  Because this product is so durable- it has a small buffable capability!  Do not try to buff after 72 hours!

  3. Tamco 2 thumbs up this is the best and easiest clear I have ever used!!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  4. We switched to TAMCO clears and urethane reducers Last month. Best move ever. Extremely nice Clears!! No dye back. Buffs like butter and very user friendly. Why on earth would you pay $200 a gallon for clear when you can get it from these guys for a fraction of the cost? Staff has bent over backwards for us during the switch. Thanks Guys!!

  5. Hey Tammy......its Brent down here in Texas at cartcustomshop.com . I really like this 4100 Glamour Clear. Goes on nice, flows out nice and cuts and buffs like butter! I appreciate your time on the phone with me. I look forward to using more of it.


    Hey if you'll hook me up with a free gallon, just use this on your customer testimonies and check out my custom site: www.cartcustomshop.com "This Custom Shop uses TAMCO Clear!
    Look down the left side of the front page, at the bottom.


    Thanks Girl!

  6. I have used Tamco 5310 primer epoxy primer, and a few different clears, some as interclear for candys. Hi highly recommend there products as I have never used finer from anyone. There customer service is also second to none.
