Lacquer, enamel or urethane?



Andre'
	Thanks for the input.  And to confirm your first statement, no
it will not be a show car, just a clean DD.
	I understand that you can get good results with clear urethane
over a base urethane to get the gloss finish.
Thanks, Rick.

Rick,

If you ain't plan'n to show it, I would go with Urethane.  Enamel is old
skool stuff, Lacquer is primarily for show cars, but Urethane is the
daily driver/occasional show type paint.  As for brand, I cant speak for
any other than Sikkens, to which I am very happy wif.  Spendy stuff
tho...  I think Ruben (White Zender Mk1 out of the Bay area) also has
used Sikkens and has been happy.
