Look one post down.

ppg,dupont?????? Glasurit??

In short, Glasurit. Use 55 line for the 199 and 22 line for the w116. You can probably use PPG for 684 (use PPG DCC) and it will look just as good as the Glasurit.

Yeah, I thought you were looking for a pair of pants for your car. Glad to know it was really paint.

You know if you misspell something here, you'll get razed for it. Hee, hee, hee.
