Default RE: paint

Comparing top quality automotive paint to a hobby paint... of course the auto paint is more expensive, it is also a superior paint. The Radio South stuff is just color matched PPG Concept automotive paint. It is a single stage catalyzed paint, two parts, i.e. paint and hardener. This paint is much better than what the typical consumer is used too. As for price, top quality paint is not cheap. I've used the paint from Radio South, see photo. I painted that plane with the PPG Concept from Radio South. I've also had PPG Deltron and PPG Omni matched at the local auto paint store to covering. The Deltron two stage is very nice, and my preferred paint, but it is not cheap. I just painted a jet tonight with PPG Deltron bases. Very quick to work with, can mask next color in 10 minutes, and awesome finish.


Sorry about the formatting gibberish.
