      Yes a friend of mine loves Akzo products,... I'm more familiar with PPG and have used Dupont's Centari. I've heard a LOT of good things about PPG's single stage stuff though,.. so I'm leaning towards it,... yet not entirely sure, so I figured on getting some opinions and see what's been successfully used, etc.

      I don't really like the "wet" look of a 2-stage paint,...

        Hey Gang,

        Glad and a little suprised to see my paint question generated some positive interest!

        Once I've got the new tanks and fenders and start working, I'll post images. I've found a couple internet places that sell "coach paint" and will ship to the US. We'll see how it all works out!
