Yes, I did do the body and paint work on mine. Used PPG products for most of the paint work, although I did use some rattle can primer when I did the basic body work. I used Delstar Acrylic Enamal and their Kondar primer/surfacer.
I would like to note, the failed DuPont on my Blazer and Dad's truck was not done by me. The Blazer was done by a local body shop (no longer in business, owner retired) that used only DuPont and had a very good reputation. Dad's trucks paint issues are a combination of a repainted hood done by the dealership that the finish failed, but there's also factory Dupont that has also failed. I have also seen many GM cars with peeling/failed finishes (GM uses Dupont as OE), blue seems to be the worst offending color.
