mack 700 797 rs rebuild

Wow! I am lost for words.

murra, that's a real nice colour and a immaculate finish,, what's the secret....jk...

That is a mighty fine drop of colour squirting done there !!

I have not seen a finish like that since I saw someone who sprayed using what he claimed was his own idea.

Now I am no sprayer, so probably not got the right terminology, but the basics were :-

He used to pop the lid off the cans of Polyurethane top coat and stand the cans in a hot 80deg C. water bath.
He used an old clothes washing boiler with water nearly up to the top of the cans. He cooked the paint for an hour or so, and then transferred it carefully to the spray pot, making sure no water got in, of course.
By using this 'Hot Spray' method he used NO thinners at all, and the paint sort of flowed to an amazing finish as it cooled.
Maybe this is common practice, and everyone knows about it, but it certainly used to work well, on cabs as well as chassis.

Cheers
