    About to paint my 1975 Euro Carrera 2.7 lime green, help choosing paint system

    I am about to give a paint refresh to my Carrera 2.7 lime green. I see that I have 3 options with this color using Glasurit paint. Single stage 22 line and two stage 55 and 90 line. What would you use?

    originally it would have been single stage, so 22 line would be my choice. i am pretty sure you can't go wrong though.

    Thanks Scott, I just painted my 67 Sand Beige in the 22 line and I am very happy with the result.

    base coat , clear coat would be the best ( not water base )

    a good single stage can do wonders. this is a fantastic single stage that was used in painting my 79 golf. was tough to actually find someone who could get the paint for me, as I wanted the correct stuff.
