    Nope - stuff Richard was using was an automotive paint.

    When I shot Mr. C lo these many years ago I used a simple
    two-pack automotive enamel. The one I used was PPG Delstar
    - worked great and sprayed with little difficulty.

    As a matter of fact I just sprayed the rebuilt bulkhead of
    Mr. C with the remains of the paint I bought lo these many
    years ago and it was as good as the day I bought it.

    Do yourself a favor - nose around a bit more and see if you
    can find a PPG dealer. They can cross the Ditzler numbers
    available in the FAQ up on OVLR.Org.
