Sinlge stage or 2 stage paint

Base coat / clear

I have shot everything over the years professionally.
All paint systems work, just some are easier than others.

The slickest paint job I ever done was on a 39 Chevy coupe.
It was an straight acrylic enamuel blue with metallic.
I heated the paint on a hot plate to 120 deg F and the paint booth was about 65 deg F.
It had just started raining outside.
The paint laid down like a mirror, no orange peel, no dust.
The customer looked at it the next morning, before it was un-taped and said dont touch it.
