Rob,

I considered using TCP single stage but after thinking about it, I decided to stick with modern 2 stage base clear paint. We will tint the color until it perfectly matches the existing DY paint in and around the jambs. A good painter can lay the stripes on so they can still be felt even after it's cleared.

Myself, I don't like the clear built up to the point the stripes are completely buried.

They're using PPG single stage on mine. With the problems they went through on the color, they were concerned with a possible color change it clear was used....Joe
