Been there done that already Bob, been studying up on their systems, I figured if I start now, by next summer I should have a handle on their paints. My PPG guy in Aurora also gave me a graduate and even marked the ratio on it with a marker.
If you used the ALK-201 enhancer and it still wasn’t glossy then it’s obvious that JC had them add the DX-10 flattening agent to the mix on the interior paints.

Gracias Don, yo encontré el samething. They had the English part folded under the label and the Spanish exposed on both of the cans that I got.

One thing that I have always been aware of is that the factory never uses a primer on the interior surfaces. I’m curious if the CPC will bond to clean prepped metal with out a primer? I really don’t want a lot of build on the garnish or any other part of the interior as far as that goes. Bulletin CPC-3 for ALK-200/ALK-201 under Surface Preparation, says the performance properties Direct to Properly Treated Substrate is very good. I take that to mean that if I used metal prep on the bare metal that I can top coat it with out a primer, does that sound correct?
