Has any one sprayed both ppg & Omni.
you can get 2 stage omni for half the price of PPG
I have use PPG in the past and was wanting an opinion
of the omni which would be better single stage PPG or 2 stage omni. Any words from experiece would be appreciated (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I have painted with both. The PPG DBC was thicker and would allow you to lay down a thicker first coat. After that I could not tell the difference. I had to almost lay down a tack coat of the Omni, it would run if laid on to thick. Omni is actually less then 1/2. I paid $66.00 a gallon for it. I'll post two pictures, the completed car was painted with DBC, the partial car is with Omni. I would paint with Omni again. Painting is all in the prep! 90% prep, 5 % skill and 5% luck!
