powder coating is the best but is not cheep and u have to have it done buy a pro, its sprayed on then baked at 400 for 10-15 mins and then its done and is stuff as hell

any one tell me what he should do just put normal paint on??

[capecod400ex]

if u use paint he will have to paint it twice or more cause it will jsut peel off and look like crap but if u p/c it will last for a long time.

when I restored my 300 I blasted all the old paint off..used a good epoxy primer and used Imron paint..it is a little more expensive but it is tuff as hell..I did it about a year ago and it still looks good....but.....if I had to do it all over again I would get it p/c though...all the effort of blasting it and the expense of a quality paint versus p/c ...go with p/c
