What paint to use for Restoration??

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

To my knowledge no points are awarded for lacquer, and none are deducted for base/clear. The sticklers say that the base/clear should look like the original lacquer stuff, ie; leave some orange peel in it, and don't paint it too nice! I would not shoot lacquer, and those guys who have painted their deuces in lacquer would not do it again. I agree that the lacquer can be well maintained, but I'm not sure Frankie enjoys rubbin on his deuce every year
