Paint recomendations

have used acrylic urethane single stage and base coat clear coat ....both have advantages and disadvantages ....cost wise it's a no brainer you can get a gallon of single stage for 100 bucks ...triple that and then some for bc/cc....don't be fooled into buying the big name brands like ppg ...dupont etc. they all make the paints for most of the private label company's that sell them for half the price...the coating store has a great line of paint and colors or they can mix you oe. if you want ...if its not a show car and you are doing it yourself i would go with the acrylic urethane single stage ...which is really clearcoat with color mixed in ....go with the slow activator put on four med. wet coats let it sit for a week ...then cut and buff ...no-one will know its not bc/cc ...as long as your going with a solid color ....if not bc/cc is the way to go...just from my experience ....hope it helps ...
