I had a paint and body guy come out to give me a quote on getting the rust cut out and the car repainted.
Ouch.
Regardless, we had some discussion about single stage paint vs. base and clear coat. What have you guys used, and is there a clear advantage either way? My gut is that the single stage is probably better for long term durability, but more difficult to repair if it gets scratched or dented.
Also, for the bilge area, it seems a lot of people have gone with POR-15 or an equivalent. I think there was some discussion about proper prep being critical for that paint. Has anyone come up with something better to use?
