    I believe Artic white and polar white are similar to alpine1 you'll need to clear coat it

          and to add, if you ever plan on using automotive paint on that same panel again, prepare to spend additional labor stripping the rattle can shit off (unless the rattle can had automotive paint to begin with).

            Do not use pray paint at all, if you brought a spray painted panel to my shop I would give you two options, strip it completely and re primer it or not paint it at all
