Just finished using PPG shop line and wasn't impressed. I've seen a lot of cars done with Delfleet and they all looked great in single stage. And the paint chips for selection are about 2"x3" and there are a LOT of them so I'm sure you could find something. Up here Delfleet all in price is about $275 CDN so very reasonable.

That brings back memories. When I was 17, I painted my first car (VW Bug) outside on the driveway one summer evening using my dad's Sears 2 hp compressor and Mars Red Centari. I used tweezers to pick out the bugs. After a buff, it came out OK.
I do regret not wearing a mask. I had red snots for about a week.
