Hi, I would suggest you go with RM's UNO single stage. I am a licensed painter and know a little about paint.... UNO has survived the recent VOC regulations virtually untouched.... which most all others haven't. which means it sprays excellent, has great UV holdout and awesome colour matches. I am using it on my 57 oval ( L271 TEXASBRAUN ). The new regulations have really hurt the remaining options as far as final appearance, holdout and spray-ability.

Here is some info recently posted on the forum.

i'd go with ppg's "fdgh". its thier premium polyurethane. super shiny ( as long as you over reduce it to 16 seconds in a din4 cup) and hard as nails! the colour matches are also really good.
