urethane enamel. I didnt like the way the BC-01 White Base laid down, it was like a single stage. UC-35 clear is good, looks awesome. I'd choose a nice shimrin base with some flake in it, to really, "pop".

If you are going to paint the car plain black just use a ppg black 9700 with ppg dcu2021 clear. HOK is mainly for custom paint jobs,bc25 is used under candy paints to give it a darker shade, you can still use this paint as a base but is more expensive and there is no difference as far as the effect goes compared to ppg black.
