Can't say I've used that convo before personally... I usually just stick with urethane based paints and clear... and that usually works out very well.
Lacquer based paints are illegal now in most parts of the US due to environmental reasons. My boss at the body shop had told me that if you're caught with Lacquer based paints in the US you can face heavy fines and/or a suspension/revocation of your business license.
I can get pretty good deals on paints in the US, but I'm not too sure that would be of much help to you. If ya need anything or have any questions feel free to shoot me an email or IM.
Just sent ya an email with those pics
Lemme know if they turned out ok.
how much can you get a gallon of urethane paint and clear?
My price right now is $240US for 1 gallon and activator.
the pics are cool, thanks

For a gallon of urethane paint, it really depends on the color you're doing as to th price. Reds or paints with reds in them are more expensive than say a black or blue. Clear also varies with the quality and the "life expectancy" of the clear.
Taking those things into consideration, prices can range from about $200 and up depending on those things, and that includes the base color, reducer, clear, and activator/hardner.
DuPont just came out with a new line of paint that's acrylic/urethane based, which is much longer lasting and has the same types of colors you'll find with House of Kolor, but it's a little pricier... and the "life expectancy" of the paint job is much longer.
can you get me a gallon ? cant ship thinner but i can get that here.
I am looking for charcoal metallic or dark silver metallic.. or gunmetal gray metallic..
something darket then this
could you get me a price.

I can get you a price, but I'd need the actual name and make of the color. For example:
1994 - 1996 Porsche Riviara Blue
If you can pick a color, I can call the supplier and get a price.
ill try to get a color number

I know what I'm dealing with when it comes to paint... I've been painting for years, so I know what paints are good and what paints are crappy. Not totally sure what you may or may not have been implying, but if I have misunderstood I greatly apologize
Since youron the subject, how much paint would you need to paint a kit and wing? Can you guys help me?
it all depends on the color if it is a real transparent paint it could take alot if not it would take 1.5 pt mabie a little more that just to do the out side of the bumpers also
