Yup thats the actual stuff used for the berger pannel's. You could also use black trim/moulding paint..Same stuff just make sure its all prepped well. You actually dont really have to prime anything down just a good scuff with hard 3M like scuff pads to scuff up the clear so the paint bites on there real good and apply. Make sure everythings clean after sanding/scuffing and also make sure its free of dust, lint, dirt, oil, grease, etc.
