To be honest I have never heard of Kirker, I would strongly suggest PPG over Dupont anyday.

kirker sucks. if your planning on keeping it go with ppg, dupont, hok, type brands. kirker will only look good for a year. i have been told by people that sprayed it. you also might want to look around for better deals on prices. smartshoppersinc has cheap prices but they rape you on shipping. look at their shipping charges on their site. they charge shipping based on your zip code and charge you at a percent based off your total order rather than weight of order. the owners son is on a lowrider forum that i go to and i've talked to him about this and they are now looking into having this changed to be more competitive with other online stores shipping charges.
