Help guys

[kalynn12]

Okay the first thing I am doing to my car is painting it. But the paint shop says there are 2 different types, enamel with a top coat and base clear with a top coat. Help! Which one do I get, is it worth the extra 400 dollars to get the base coat or is the guy trying just to make more money?<BR>Jess

Base Clear is the way to go, more expensive but thats how it comes from the factory it will look better for longer<BR><P>------------------<BR>Clear White 2.5L GSR

the base clear is more often called Single stage, Toyotas have this style more often.<BR>I dont like it my self, I find the paint dulls easier and less attractive. Base and Clear is a two step process, They spray the base (color) maybe 3 coats and then the clear 2-3 coats usually. This Way to me, give nicer results and easier to keep a shine on it.
