The things is they've **all** gotten so good in the last few years.  Paint technology is light years ahead of what it was when our cars were built.

The most convenient supplier for most of us is NAPA:

        www.martinsenour-autopaint.com

Most cities have distributors for these:

        www.sherwin-automotive.com

        www.performancecoatings.dupont.com/bowstreet5/webengine/dpc/common/Controller

        www.ditzlerautopaint.com

        www.rmpaint.com

        www.basfrefinish.com

I used to use Sherwin-Williams a lot just because they were always about half the price of the known brands and they were as good or better as the major brands; but that half price business was back in the early eighties.  Don't know where they fall now.

Whatever you use, make sure you use proper respiratory precautions.  The technology has gotten better in function but it's also very deadly stuff.  Do you have an HVLP setup?
