Here in the Bay Area I am told that single stage original paint is not available due to VOC.
Is this just a Bay Area thing...is it available anywhere else nearby? Sacramento...Modesto...Santa Rosa? Nevada? I am being told that 2 stage with a clear coat is all I can do...I hope there are other options. What advice can you give me? I wish PanelMaster Rick O was nearby...

O.E. was single stage, and Porsche continued to use it through the 90's on some models ( why some, I do not understand) Over here on the right coast it is getting harder to find. I am one of only 2 shops in Richmond that can still shoot it. Not can due to regulations, but can due to the fact that no one ever learned how to at other shops. I have a customer with a 993 thatinsists on single stage, and NONE of the collision shops in town will do it, so I have a customer for life now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) If you need, I MAY be able to get it and ship it to you, but it won't be cheap, and the shipping may be problematic due to the " hazardous chemical " issue
