Good Paint?

[Bender]

Whats a good paint thats not going to be tons of money. I have a guy painting my car for 800 and I buy the paint. He said Nylon with a clear coat would be the best for a daily driver and someone my age still going to college. What do you think of that paint?

Sikkens was used on mine, and if I ever repaint it again, it'll be with Sikkens.
If you're gonna do it, might as well do it right the first time., but that's just my 2 cents worth.

JJS is correct... do it right the first time. I used House of Colors & PPG. DuPont also has very good products. Be very careful of a cheap paint jobs... you get what you pay for. I just recently learned a very expensive lesson! Check the guy out... Have him show you some of the work he's done... Get a written contract & guarantee.
For a good paint job, the paint products alone are going to cost 500. Thats not including sanding products.

Also keep in mind that the paint for the bumpers is different. I paid $4000 to have mine painted. It involved srtipping all the old paint off. Primer,paint, and clear coat.
