Supposed to get the body back today. Called me yesterday and said it looks very good so we'll see.

I'm going to spray a test panel with the two-stage black and then a stripe of flattened clear and see how I like it. That's my first choice.

I have Sikkens, but the car is painted in Dupont.

Default sikkens

great paint, another top quality european paint, makes the dupont clear feel like water compared.
is that what you have the semi goss clear in?? and also what you use on your own stuff??
dupont is ok, but its nothing compared to sikkens/standox/spies
jake

I have always used PPG; it's what I learned on so it's what I stick with. The closest paint supplier to me though doesn't carry it.

Whatever Dupont clear the guy is using is awesome. I actually blocked the car with 400 grit aggressively and didn't go through a single spot. He had 5 coats at that time.
