When you are refinishing your white cargo van it is important to have the right combination of primer, basecoat, and clearcoat to restore your OEM finish. The Oxford White Ford YZ/Z1 is a common tint for a lot of Ford vehicles, and you are correct when choosing a white primer to start with. The white primer will help seal any body filler, bare metal, and existing finish so that your basecoat will cover quicker and not exhibit any die back later down the road. The 77423 DTM primer will require the 77426 activator, and 1 to 2 parts 7720 reducer depending on whether or not you need a primer filler or sealer. The HFP154 Oxford White basecoat only requires the 7720 reducer though in a 1:1 mixing ratio, no activator needed. In general basecoats do not require the use of a hardener because the clearcoat protects the basecoat. Some professionals will add up to 10% hardener to their basecoat if they plan on doing any sanding or pinstriping, but we would not recommend that for most refinish projects. The High Teck 77125 Clearcoat will require the 77150 hardener, but does not require any reducer. This clearcoat is formulated for easy use, so you just add the hardener and you are ready to spray. As far as hardeners and reducers go, you will want to choose a temp/speed that fits your drying ambient temperature and job size. If you are spraying in normal temperatures 70-80F or just a panel repair you can use the normal or medium reducer/hardener. If you are spraying in hot temps above 80F or spraying the entire van you will want to use a slow hardener. We always recommend using a slower drying reducer and hardener to allow the coating to flow out properly. The extra few minutes of flash time will improve your overall finish quite a bit.
