Having car repainted.. other than stock.. need to know a few personal paint brands that are recommended. Places use all sorts of names, and I am afraid that I don't know the difference between any of them. (quality, price, shine, fading, etc,etc) Thanks, in advance.. Ray

For as long as I can remember, my dad has always used Sherwin Williams paints in his body shop. I have never seen a vehicle come back because the paint went bad.
Shameless plug for Sherwin Williams
I have a dream, and that is a 69 Boss 302 with Jules Asner in it.
Current - 2002 Chevy Silverado
Former - 98 SVT E0 T-Red 4/4/97 #173 of 6535(so long girl, you'll be missed)
