Dupont chromaBase its a base, clear system I have found it to stand up quit well. If you are doing it your self I would do 2-3coats base and 4clear that way when you cut and buff you have alot to cut and not have to worrie about cut throw.

for the bare metal either use metal etching primer(either use a cheap gun 0r old one because it could etch your gun)
of metal wash with than aply uro primer over it

truck bed line will work just remember to make sure the pieces you apply it to a nice and dry
because if you get any water under there it wl rust out fast

and the hood I would just paint it the same as the truck it will give it a nice and clean look

when painting follow the directions on the lable
and for info the book Automotive paint handbook
by john pfanstiehl I found it to be extremly educational
just remeber though you use a cheap gun and you will know it when you start paintting
