Paint codes and type Q's?

I am looking at color options for my '74. I am thinking about "Ravenna".

My question is, will this color be a one stage or two stage paint. Can I get this color in a BC/CC? Do you think BC/CC is needed and looks beter?

Thanks

A good paint supply store can make the paint in either single stage or BC/CC. I like BC/CC, but in general, it costs more in materials.

OEM was single stage paint, at least on the solid colors. I don't recall if there were clear coats on the metallic cars.

There are advantages to either, but the real issue is what do you like spraying.

I am new to the whole process of painting. The car is almost 100% in PPG epoxy primer now. I am going to be top coating the trunks, and jams next . If single looks good, lasts, and is easier to spray I may use that.

Does anyone have Ravenna in single stage on there car?

Thanks
