    I'm using PPG's Shopline. Preety good quality products whithout the high price. I use an epoxy primer first which is good for bare metal, wait the flash time, then spray my high build. Some will say its a cheap product but I have paint jobs out there that I have used shopline undercoats and they still look like glass 8 yrs later.
