Default Firewall underbody Paint??

Spraying out of a gun, What is your favorite paint, or the best to get the correct finish on firewall and underbody, The bottom of the car is quite clean so is the firewall just a couple holes to weld up from Tach cable but the color shade is quite evident, seems most paint I have is too dull, Thanks in advance

The best paint to use would be a single stage enamel/urethane, and mix flattener/hardener/reducer with it. The amount of gloss can be changed depending on the amount of flattener you use. Depending on the brand, go by their mixing ratio's and add/subtract the amount of flattener you want, until you get what you're looking for.
