November 1, 201014 yr comment_334864 I would have taken all of that stuff off before I took the glass and everything else off. Color looks good, though.

November 8, 201014 yr comment_335491 Just wondering how you made your decision on primer and paint choices? Did you get advise from a painter or from the paint store? I'm going to be doing the exact same thing your doing but the job of picking the proper paint,primer,clear coat has me intimidated.Just looking for some info.

November 17, 201014 yr comment_336281 Looking good. Nice choice with Devilbiss. I have been painting as a hobby for almost 7 years now and the gun makes all the difference!!!Logan's.... If it's within your budget I highly reccomend PPG. I have only used Omni and PPG and PPG blows Omni out of the water. That being said, if the budget is limited, I would use PPG or equivalent for the base coat and Omni for clear. PPG is much better for color matching.

November 17, 201014 yr comment_336282 Isn't Omni Made by PPG? Now I'm confused.I used Omni on my 70' (first paint job I'd ever done, in my garage or at all) And I could have sworn it said PPG on the can.Am I mistaken or something weird?Dave Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37420-im-finally-starting-my-diy-car-paint-240z/?&page=2#findComment-336282 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 18, 201014 yr comment_336339 Omni is sold by ppg, it is there "buget" brand. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37420-im-finally-starting-my-diy-car-paint-240z/?&page=2#findComment-336339 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 18, 201014 yr comment_336353 Yup^ It's about 1/2 price. But color matching is really tough with Omni. The clear seems more prone to orange peel from my experience.
