I believe this is a lacquer product since it isn't catalyzed and is ready to spray out of the can. That would make it the least durable choice for car paints. Lacquer is a forging product to spray or repair. The color choices are limited in this particular line. In some states, your PPG or other paint dealer can order lacquers in any color you want and it would be equivalent effort to spray out. What is the price for a gallon of Duplicolor? A gallon of hugger orange lacquer from PPG was quoted to me as $350 and with special order.
