My black 300H has PPG "Concept" single stage paint on it. I painted it in my garage over 7 years ago. I applied 5 coats so that when I polish it each spring, I don't worry too much about burning through to the white epoxy primer/sealer. Those who've seen my car at Carlisle or?the Maine Meet?will vouch for its gleem. I've only driven the car just over 10K miles since the paint job, and it still looks fresh. I have to agree that the base-clear factory finishes on my 05 Grand Cherokee, my 06 Stratus, and my 06 Charger really suck. Each has permanent scars from bug spatter, bird droppings, and no resistance to scratches and scuffs. I recommend single stage paint, and suggest you look into the PPG Concept acrylic urethane paint. It was easy to apply, and easy to clean up. The finished result is only as good as your efforts in wet sanding, color sanding,?polishing, and glazing.
