Either way, I'll be shooting clear over it. One might argue that a traditional bc/cc is better since I'll be performing the same amount of work shooting the clear.
I guess, price is really the big difference. I can't bring myself to pay $200 per gallon of paint.
The summit line has different colors for the single stage vs 2 stage paint.. I kind of like the 'candy apple red' and the 'performance yellow' on the single stage, although I imagine unless the car was absolutely perfectly straight, the yellow would hide better than the red.
I'll sand and guide coat the primer/sealer, but I'm not going to go crazy replacing sheet metal that isn't rusty.

Yea, PPG, R&M etc. are getting so expensive. If you want to get really sick, price the House of Color stuff. Yea, definately clearcoat. And there's a clearcoat technique that adds a bunch of depth to the paint that I've been wanting to try. It takes a couple extra coats of clear. You mix some of the basecoat with the clear in the first couple of coats.
