[Healeys] Paint

[Greg Lemon]

I agree with Bob and Perry, a single stage urethane is a nice compromise to 
achieving the goal of getting more of a period look while still using a 
modern, superior paint product (I have painted with both acrylic lacquer and 
urethane enamel, the urethane is far better to work with).  It works easily 
(sand and polish) sticks very well, and is very durable, the adhesion and 
durability is where it is superior to older paints.  Spot touch ups will 
also polish out completely until the paint is fully cured (weeks to months 
after it goes on, however only on solids not on metallics).

It should also save a few bucks in labor and materials.

The look you want is matter of personal preference, but too (obviously) 
prefer the single stage urethane.
