depends on what you get...

Urethane base coat/ clear coat...this is the good stuff, more like the factory paint...will coast more

Acrylic Laquer...this is what the factories were using back in the day...prone tp sun fade and cracking as it ages, can also yellow

Single stage Urethane...this is your least expensive option....this is what Maaco would spray if you got one of their budget paint jobs...

If you decide to go with a metallic, you will want to either practice you ass off spraying it or have a pro do it...and if you have a pro do it, make sure they spray every body panel at the same time, same painter, same booth,

I'm just gonna have someone do it. Think that color would look good? And $75 for all the paint! Think that's a legit deal?
