i used nason single stage, turned out pretty good. its a race car so it's not perfect. paint was only $100 for a gallon and harderner/reducer. total cost to paint the car was $350.

I'd go with PPG but if you're on a budget you can get good results with Kirker. I've seen some nice jobs come out with it. Clear buffs out pretty good too. You can get it here. http://www.smartshoppersinc.com/

These were painted with Kirker.
