ppg black base with ppg cerami clear on top of it. was not cheap by any means. but well worth it.

A real wake up call...lol...just paid 112.00 for a pint of maroon...solid color ..no pearl !!!! When I started painting ..lacquer was king..and it was 7.00 a pint (1975)

The good thing about black ....if you need to repair a panel (I hope not) you can just paint that panel and it will match....no blending into the adjacent panels.
