single vs tri-stage paint??? i have a black camaro with a few nics and scratches that i want to touch up. considering its going to be a "street car" not a "show car" on a budget, would it matter if i used single stage black paint vs the tri-stage black? i can imagine that i would have to feather the car really good to blend it with the stock paint but does it matter when blending?
thanks,
nick

well i realized the car is not the tri-stage but a dual-stage (base/clear). a friend of my dad's just repainted a black car with dual-stage. i guess i'll see what i can gather up for if he has anything left over.

nick, i do custom paint for a living, single stage black isnt bad, and some actually like it better then 2 stage because its more black and less cloudy. However it wont last as long as base clear, its up to you, if your on a budget theres no reason not to use black single stage
