It won't be to long before I have to decide what I will paint with. My last 2 trucks I painted single stage. Things have changed big time since I painted them.. I am building my own paintbooth which should be much better but I will have to come up with all the paint gear. Dave

Not as easy as lacquer but doable. The single stage can only be spotted in no longer than 24 hours after applied where a LIGHT wetting with lacquer retarder will burn in the edges and prevent a halo around the spot. Still NO guarantee. With paint prices sky high it's nice to not have to do an entire panel for just a nick or scratch.
