Paint color choices

We simply share opinions, sometimes knowledge here. You are like me, I drive my cars, make them as nice as I can in my budget. Like you I spray without a booth so we know there will be some bugs, dust in the paint.
You have used tractor enamel, We now it is tough. Wenow it fades, UV gets it after a while. Short while usually. Ever try to DA the stuff off???? Tough!
Costs. You have checked out TCP Global. Or do the same with any pro paint store. But at TCP your T5 was it in 75 is $250 /gal for acrylic urethane from their deal that uses a factory formular. Add hardner an some reducer, shipping, and it comes to bout $350 a gal. I have done cars with 1 /2 gal but not under everything. 2 qts might get you done. BUY 3 qts and that will be same price as a gal!!!!
TCP bc/cc will be $450-500 , yes they have a different qualities of clear. I bet acrylic urethane will suit you

well as it does me.

Again there is a difference in th chemistry of all this stuff. Some flows better, some sands/buffs better, some takes UV better, etc.

Ever buy cheap body filler and then pay MORE for the better stuff??????IF so you know what I am talking about! Difference in sand paper, cut off wheels, spray guns......
