I'd stay away from the Omni stuff, I'd use Krylon before that junk.

What problems have you had with it? I use PPG in general, my dealer supplies omni also, I had posted a similar post wanting to know what was the best black to be used on firewalls, I then asked my distributor about it and he sent a few pints of various supplies for me to mess with and I really liked the finish with the Black base with harner in it from Omni, I have subjected the sprayed panel with chemicals with no damage to finish, I even heated it with the propane torch (simulate header heat) and held up good? Now the red on the car is PPG single stage, but was going to use the omni base deal underneath. Might not now

I've painted a few open wheel race cars with it, just don't like it - didn't like the coverage, the way it laid out, etc... I think you get what you pay for.

In my shop we use Glasurit and on most GM's we use single-stage with a flattening agent and depending on the gloss or sheen to aqiure the choice it goes by weight not the percentage of mixture, very easy, super durable. I have been using Glasurit for many years and it is a great product.

So, you are saying that the flattening agent works better on the weight measurement then on the percentages? No wonder I was having problems.

[Bergerz28]

Its not that the weight works better, mixture for Glasurit paint requires you to weigh the mixtures for flat, semi and so on. We can paint something 2 weeks later to match to another part and being that it goes by weight you will never have a problem with parts or other items matching the shade or gloss.

We just painted inner fendes and radiator support for a 69 Nova....used the SEM Rustshield satin w/hardner and gloss enhancer...we then used an eggshell clear coat and it came out awesome...just the right gloss and super durable.

Did you use a rattle can eggshell clear or was it mixed?
