I've ordered the Arctic Blue Poly from TCP Global in acrylic lacquer for my 39. I've started working on the body, and hope to paint the car early this spring. I chose the lacquer as it is easier for an amateur to use, and is more forgiving. Not to mention easier to touch up. I had my 51 painted in modern base/clear coat a few years back. A small dent (silver dollar size) on the front fender required repainting the entire fender - something not necessary with lacquer.

The only problem is the fact that you can't buy the stuff in CA. Don't know about other states.
