In this video My Friend Pete will explain what High Solid Clears are good and why you should use them on collision repair jobs or paint blending applications.
What is the difference between MS and HS clearcoat?
Simplistic categorization of clearcoats according to the number of coats applied looks as following: MS (medium solids) – 2 or 3 coats. HS (high solids) – 2 coats.

What is high solids clearcoat?
High-solids clearcoat has a higher concentration of resin and a smaller amount of solvent or VOC (volatile organic compounds.) Universal or lower solids urethane clear has less resin and more solvents. High-solids clearcoat has a smaller molecular structure than lower solids.

Conclusion: high solids give better results and save money

By applying a high-solids paint, you get a brighter and more opaque finish result, while saving money due to the better coverage performance.
