Dick,
I was seriously thinking of Stewart Systems as well. Once I asked for a quote and references, the price went Way up, and no references on composites were given (I asked numerous times).
That made me nervous.
I ended up going with paint from Eastwood: http://www.eastwood.com/paints/basecoats.html
Overall, very happy with the paint so far. Just finished, so no longevity information yet.
If you have any questions, just let me know.

I am getting ready to paint my plane. I would like to get some feedback as to what type of paint to use. The body shop I am working with says he is willing to use whatever I would like. I have looked at Stewart Systems at Air Venture and like what they had to say. My body man thinks I should just use a regular automotive paint. He has used it many times on Corvettes and doesn’t see a difference. Then the question came up on clear coating. It’s more money, but he thinks it worth it. Is there a difference between automotive paints and aviation paints? What have you guys used? I would love some input.
Thanks,
Dick Harpster N585V
