if youve gone this far, dont use dupli-color... go with something good... a gallon of good clear should run less than $200... a quart of base, CW, maybe $100... DONT CHEAP OUT NOW!

Omni is the cheaper brand of PPG. All I use is PPG products and have never had a problem. Although I use DCU clear (PPG), OMNI should be pretty decent.
