I always use a single part paint on the antiques. Now PPG Concept is the best available and use the hardner. Used Dupont Centari for many years but no longer available
Maybe it's just me but I can see the difference between a clear coat paint job and a single part. I just think anything made before 1965 doesn't look original with a clear coat.
Not to mention, when you are doing a complete restoration and painting lots of individual pieces over the course of the build, painting everything again with a clear coat is a lot of work.
Little repairs or touch ups are much easier with single part.
