Single Stage on '95 993?

Were the '95 cars painted in single stage or clear coated? Was Glasso the brand?

Check the old archives...it depends on the color of your car. My 97 and 98 Guards red cars did not have clear coats (single stage). Supposedly, the metallic colors did/do.

I am of the understanding that the factory paint is made by Sikkens.

Viken?

95 Speed Yellow here with no Clear Coat. Check your rag after waxing, and if it has a tinge of your car color, then no clear.

YMMV!

My '95 is Iris Blue Metallic and definitely is clear coated. This was discussed in late summer and, as indicated by Chris, all metallic colors are clear coated.

Mine is Grand Prix White, I'll have to check with some compound, although it will be hard being the compound is white as well. Maybe some 1000 grit paper under the bumper, then buff the spot with compound.

An archive search turns up a number of previous discussions. This one lists a number of single-stage and clear coated colors. Grand Prix White is listed as single stage.
