I know single stage is a old school way of painting and poorer quality. but is there a single stage thats a good quality that wont fade a way like in a year? something that can hold up prety well? and what are the diffrence between enamel and urethane single stage which 1 is better

Single stage urethane only. I work part time at a decent shop that will still single stage black and white jobs--in PPG only $$$.

This is a car I did in single stage. Its gun finished--not even sanded/buffed!!!

I use U-TECH not PPG because I have a friend who sells it. Gallon of black is at least $200 now. PPG is going to be a bit more I belive

You need to do some research. A gallon of base makes 2 gallons of spray-able paint but then you still need clear.
