RE: IML: Painting Clear Base?



I think you'll want to go with the single stage for a more original look.  I
painted my Barracuda black with base/clear (Imperial isn't anywhere close to
getting painted).  It is much glossier than an original paint job.  However,
that was the look I wanted for that car.  In my opinion, the single stage
won't give you a deeper gloss, but a deeper, more opaque color.  If that
makes sense.

I am painting black. Does basecoat clear look right for a 50's-60's factory
job. Or will single stage give a deeper gloss that looks closer to factory
look?
