Painting my Camaro Flat Black - need input

[Xplosive Performance]

Dear mrr 1999

As a shop that does custom painting and are a PPG certified shop of course i will say go with PPG. Now thats said, really i would go with base coat/ clear coat PPG DCU 2060 is a great satin clear reduce add hardener and spray, now all paint suppliers have there own, if you stay with a quality supplier and the one's you mention are quality but we like base and clear. The big thing to remember is any trash or imperfections when painting flat MUST be repainted you can not sand and buff the imperfection because it will be bright then.

Sorry had a problem to take care of.

Now with that said please remember that the paint you use does not make a great paint job. Body work makes the paint job. You can spend thousands of dollars on the most expense paint there is, if your body work is not right your paint will look bad even in flat and really bad in black. Just because you may have bought new sheet metal it doesnt mean its free of little dents or that it is straight. The key to all real great and good and sweet paint jobs is the body work. Laying the paint down is the easier part of the job. Its the body work that is hard. If your not right there the paint is going to show everything and everything thats bad.
