Your opinions on PPG paint.
One month ago, stupid lowlife stunnaz ripped off my rear 
emblem leaving a deep gash on the paint.
I took my car to a PPG repair facility to get an estimate. They said they would have to repaint the whole rear hatch/deck. The guy who ran my estimate said they only use PPG paint on all of their paint work and high end vehicles like BMW, Mercedez uses PPG paint. I asked him how it compares to factory paint. He says, since my car has clear coat, it will look even better than factory and PPG is the best kind of paint out there today.
- Is PPG paint what he said it be?
- What does PPG stand for and what is it really?
- Should I check elsewhere to find a shop that would use factory paint/process?

i love PPG, i work for a PPG distributor and its whole line is great. ive been mixing it for a year now and every color seems to come out better looking then factory. thats why when I paint my car its only gonna be PPG DBU base and clear.
