Home job : Acrylic, safer to work with, cheaper.

Shop job : Most shops spray 2pac


2pac has a good gloss off the gun but acrylic can be cut back and buffed to a great shine.

2 Pak is a better paint all round, as it doesnt get the side effects that acrylic gets like, orange peel look and run marks and plus when sprayed correctly with 2pack primer etc etc, 2pak will stay shinnier longer with out needing to buff it, and 2pak clear coats dont get buffed away as easily as acrylic. you can buff 2pack but you dont need to as often as acrylic. 2pak is more expensive paint though and normally they tend to hat metallic looks in 2pak
