What's the best automotive paint?

[mojo_08]

I'm gonna have my car ('93 Honda Civic Esi) repainted and I don't know what kind/brand of paint i'll be using.
The auto detailing shop told me that polyurethane would be good but its also very pricey at around P25000! :shock:
Any suggestions out there?
Thanks!

PS.
I'm not well versed with technical terms so please bear with me. :D

anzhal
dupont
sikkens
ppg

pero biased ako dahil binebenta ko anzhal/dupont

[mojo_08]

Aren't there any cheaper alternatives?
Cheap but should have good quality...
Sagad na budget ko kse kakapalit ko lang ng SOHC engine.
And btw, I'm a Ma'am :wink:

Ma'am , KimpOy should be able to guide you kasi linya niya yan but comment
ko lang sa paint job mo , kailangan na kailangan na ba talaga ? I mean everybody
know's you get what you pay for pero not necessarily mahal pero nowadays wala
ng mura pero kung meron man not recommended ang quality . Konting ipon pa kaya
para happy ka talaga sa results .

25t change color?? heheh... para sakin kahit ano ok... asa price din... ang importante yung pintor... kahit acrylic... makintab din naman ata mala salamin... kung mahusay gumawa eh... heheh

[kimpOy]

ma'am mojo,
sorry po, anyways meron kang alternative, yung 1k or Acrylic type paint
marami pong brand ang 1K like
Paralux
Glasurit
USA
Nippon/Nippelac
Mcgills
Guilder
pero the best 1K in the biz is the
Dupont Lucite 400
yung pung Dupont ay familiar dahil sila rin po ang nag invent sa Teflon na gamit natin sa ating mga pipes/frying pan etc etc

dupont has all standard colors of all car/motorcycles/boats/airplanes/logos

and tama po si AC, nasa kamay po ng pintor ang outcome!

I suggest u use 2k paints konting additional budget na lang 2k ka na and mas maganda shine and durability ng car paint mo. pwede rin nax autootive paint kung mejo tipid budget. good shine and durability too. But the quality of the paint job greatly depends on th shop using the correct prep,bc,cc materials and not chop chop brands and the shine also depends on the detailer

[pajerokid]

ma'am mojo::: if i were you i'd save up for the more expensive polyurethanes rather than choosing acrylic. Mas makintab talaga yung urethane and mas matibay, better color retention over the years etc. SInce minsan lang naman magpa-repaint, go for the best na po :D my 2cents lang po :D
