Re: Automotive paint
I use Dupont Chroma on everything. It's the best I've ever used.

Re: Automotive paint
That sounds cheap for paint! I used Nason urethane on mine, no clear and I'm sure I paid more than that for everything, reducer, paint and hardener. My truck is parked outside year round and the paint still looks great even after three freezing cold winters and very hot summers. It's not the highest quality, maybe right in the middle. Are you doing a base/clear or just base?
