I have BC-CC on my black TR3, four years old, looks great.  It is shinier than
the original paint but holds up nicely and is easy to shine up for a parade or
show.

All,
My '56 TR-3 is in need of a respray.  It was last done in 1991 with RM Diamond
paint system.  Although not original type paint, I was very pleased with the
looks of the finished product.  I took the car to a shop last week and they
recommended a base coat clear coat system.  Said it would look much better and
will hold up better.  I have mixed feelings about a new paint system on a 56
year old car.  I've kept most everything original but it will never be a
concours car.  Any experience or views on the subject?  I haven't seen a TR
with a new clear coat system on it.
TIA
Pete
