I'm in the process of restoring the engine compartment, luggage compartment, and many other pieces (engine tin, etc.) on my '70E. I started to use some spray can semi-gloss black that looks great but seems to be quite fragile, so I'm thinking of trying something else. I have a compressor, a respirator with replaceable cartridges, and recently purchased a gravity feed detail gun (that I have not yet used). At one point I thought of using POR Chassis black, but the cost and toxicity disuaded me. Any recommendations for a semi-gloss black that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, looks authentic, and won't kill me? I'm also doing the dashboard. Should it be the same black used elsewhere, or is it more of a satin?
Thanks,
