What did 914's come with originally. I am told VW and Porsche were some of the first manufacturers to use clear coats. My local paint dealers can mix the colour codes I provide them but cannot find if they were enamels or clear coated.

the 914 came with a baked enamel finish. paint manufacture was glassurit (not sure on spelling).
this was a single stage paint. I believe the closest you can get to the orginal type of paint would be an acryric enamel single stage paint So, if your going for orginality, which is what i would suggest, go with the glassurit single stage. Im not sure what type of primer to suggest. |
