Best brand paint for the car.

Fox Body · 03-05-2001, 08:15 PM

I may be getting my car painted within the next two months by a friend of mine. He said that if I buy the materials, he would do it for free! Anyway, I pretty much know what color I want, but I'm not sure which brand paint/clearcoat is most worthy. He suggested a few paints, but can any of you give any suggestions from experience or from what you've heard? Thanks.
