Cheep single stage paint.............
I did a little paint work for a guy out here in FL
Here are some pics
That is what a single stage looks like, not even wet sanded yet. This only cost me $38.00 for the pint. I charged the guy $125.00.

Omni is a decent paint. Still dosen't compare to the PPG DCU and DBC
This is all I use

I'm a DBC fan. I don't spray anything else.
Question for the original poster. Why would you wetsand a METALLIC single stage. Wouldn't that affect it? Just curious, saw someone wetsand a single stage gunmetal at a shop and it came out jacked.
Looks nice though.

I had to wet sand it, there was so much orange peal. It still came out really good even after the wet sand.
Now I am still trying to figure out why I had so much orange peal, but o-well, the guy was happy with it.
I am a big fan of the PPG stuff to, but for the job OMNI is so much cheaper. Now if I was doing my car the PPG is the way. People just don't want to pay much for getting things painted and I have to cut somewhere.

Omni is some cheap paint, and chips easy. I had the interior of my hatch painted with it, and it chips off so easily.

Yeap, I've had several sets of wheels painted with Omni and it holds up very well.
