Default Re: Painting a Model A

Yes, urethane paints. But even enamels are not good for you. The urethane paints are two part and are mixed together just prior to application. They cure (dry) hard and are impervious to gasoline and even acetone. Easily wet sanded and polished for a professional looking job.

If you have the car apart and can bring the pieces to a professional painter, ready to paint the finish coat, then it can be a reasonable cost.
