i use a color called rally black . its a semi gloss single stage with a catalyst . but an other good match if you don't want to buy a hole QT. is 5-star's trim black in a spray can . part #5911 . 15 oz can . its an enamel so it will hold up better than a laquer which most of them are .

john you need to get some fine line tape remask it . feather the edge (sand out ) of the flaking black paint and refinish . why did it happen ? the person that did the job .did not sand right up to the tape edge (and i do meen right up to it) its a pain in the butt to do . less than half of the so called profesionals are actually profesionals . that realy looks like hell the shine is not right there is way to much peal and what is the edge next to the screening . it should have been sanded better . most shops will just red pad prep for some thing like that .when it needs to be sanded with 500 grit wet or dry paper .

Porsche 962. I will even grind it down now. The paint you call rally Black has a code/number?

becouse sikkens will not sell there coatings to people that don't have repair shops . you can use BASF's RM UNO sc804 with dh42 or 46 hardeners and ur50 reducer mixed 4-1-1 . RM auto paint is the sister co. of glasurit . i use rally black from sikkens just becouse its about 10% cheaper . but it will give you the same finish and longevity .
