Which clear did you use?

Back in the day I worked at a shop with a full PPG mixing station and the boss gave me the run of the place after hours and on the weekends. I painted a couple of bicycle frames I built back then and fell in love with the Concept 2001 clear. That was back before the VOC scare forced solids reductions in all the clears. Anyway, that 2001 was thick but it flowed out nicely and didn't have any tendency to run. Good stuff.
