I have been busy working on a 4 door. The whole write up is on my website.

I used some Napa paint. I am not really sure what kind it is, but the tech guy I talked to at the Napa hot line said that it did not need any clear coat. I shot a test about 2 weeks ago and it seemed to harden fairly well after about a week. It is also pretty glossy. I haven't tried to polish it after sanding.

It is a Napa brand. They guy on the phone said they are discontinuing it for the paintshop stuff. I am pretty sure it is some kind of enamel becuase you reduce it. I was going to wait until it hardens and throw some gasoline on a hiddent spot and see if it gurts it. I may have to put some clearcoat on it later.

Of course they are getting rid of it...it looks nice! LOL I'm wondering how the paintshop stuff will hold up over time?? Repo used the "dark Blue" once and said it shot really nice but was more electric then dark. I thought about adding some of the black to it to darken it up.
