After doing some repairs to my rear deck lid it is time to paint. The whole car has been repainted 9 (?) years ago by the PO to a different color. It was done in single stage paint. Would it make sense to finish off the lid with enamel like the rest of the car , or, go to base and clear? Right now cost is an issue. I know a can of single stage is going to be a lot less than base and clear. Do some of you guys use single stage in engine compartments and trunks and base and clear for the exposed areas of the car?
