Hey There,
I wish to paint my white 1983 190E.
I am going for a grey Color which our second Benz is painted in. The Reason I am doing this is because the White is not very flattering to the Car and very dificult to keep clean because I think it has not got a clear coat on it.
Now my Question is when I come to tell my Paitnshop how to do the Paintjob what should I ask for specifically. Like how many coats of paint and how many coats of laquer over the top. I know it is going to cost a bomb but I am not planning on selling the car therefore this paintjob has to last. Any tips and tricks anyone could give me will be very much appreciated. By the way I live in the U.K.

P.S.: Can you tell me why I no longer can read the topis on the Forum's? Tehrfore not being able to read anyother post's?

Thank you Toby
