It's getting harder and harder to find good single stage paints any more that can be mixed in the old colors, let alone those that are half-way affordable, since the refinish business has totally gone base/clear. It shouldn't be that way because SS and BC are usually mixed from the same toners in most lines.
I've been using a lot of SPI products lately and like them because of their performance, service, and support. They recently started carrying a few SS colors, so they are my #1 choice now for anything black, red, or white I need to paint. Unfortunately most of the stuff I do aren't those basic colors.
The only paint dealer I have available to me locally is a PPG one and I have no interest in dealing with them any more for a variety of reasons. I have Dupont and other dealers available to me 30 miles away but I would rather not have to waste my time and gas traveling just to buy paint, so it would be nice to find a place (like SPI) where I could get SS paint with just a phone call or online order.
Any ideas?
