Preferred exterior paint?
« on: May 02, 2014, 01:13:10 PM »
I'm wondering if there is a consensus as to what's good? I was originally going to BC/CC, for a number of reasons that are no longer important since, after looking at all the vintage Mustangs next to modern Mustangs at the 50th, I decided BC/CC doesn't look "right" on the old cars. Not meaning to flame anyone that has BC/CC.

I think I'd still like to use urethane from a durability perspective, but maybe could be talked into enamel?

Is PPG Concept DCC urethane popular?

Not sure it matters, but the car will be Wimbledon white. IMHO white is a color that looks more "different" in BC/CC than some others.

Curious What Charles is using as his interior paint advice was spot on.

My painter has done the past 4 or 5 cars for me in DCC Concept single stage, even the metallic cars.  Looks nice.

I use DCC for interior and engine bays also, just flattened properly.

Glad the interior worked out, think you'll be real happy with that and it should hold up much nicer than lacquer.
