    urethane paint is much more expensive than acrylic paints. what's the difference ba? yung mga stock paint, ano gamit? and what will happen kung hindi marunong gumamit ng urethane paint yung painter?

    AFAIK, urethane paints are more "flexible", thus less prone to cracking, perfect for automotive paint purposes.

    BB: Not exactly pre, it doesn't get damaged as fast as acrylics but it'll still get shot pretty bad.

    Urethane paint is glossier than acrylic paint, hence it makes your ride prettier

    That's right. I work in the flooring industry and all (if not most) pre-finished wood floors have Urethane or Polyurethane finish on them because they resists scratches better than acrylic finishes.

    BTW, urethane automotive paints are resistant to cigarette burns. heheh!
