if you are thinking about single stage paint or some thing like "endura" i would really stay away from this. i have lots of experince with this kind of paint and will warn you of the crazy amount of helth risk to who ever is spraying this stuff, also when the paint cracks it will take large chunchs of paint with it. my experince with this deals both with painting MY rx7 with(i regret this every day i look at the car and wish i sprayed it with regular automotive paint) and spraying this on heavy industrial equipment(semi trucks and traillers as well as many more kinds of equipment) as well as steel platforms( this is the only great use for this kinda paint). one other point with regards to cracking, water tends to find ALL cracks in this stuff and the rusting prosses will be faster. i warn you about this paint from my experience i will never use this again or tell anyone to think about using this. consider your self warned
