After many searches and speaking to David B, he suggested i post my question here. I have a problem with brown spots on the rear quarter panels of my dark green honda accord coupe. They are scattered and in the front section from bottom to about top of tire height. I have pc'd the car with...

After 30 some pages on " Paint search" i have not found a thing on this type of paint. I have been told that it is used on long haul trucks because of it's durability. I have been batting the idea around of using the clear coat version of this stuff on the car. If it is as bullet proof as...
