I hear one can get the good stuff (solvent based) in Nevada. I have been considering getting a paint job in TJ. I wonder how many members here have done so..Transaction Feedback

Isn't it better to go at least to Ventura?

Isn't it all of Cali? I know my painter has been talking about the drive to go water based paints in recent years. Most states, you can walk in any automotive paint supplier and purchase the raw materials.

Here is the shop I used... They are on the westside and will mix and put it in a spray can. They will do either a Single stage paint or Two stage(requires clear coat) I think I paid about 25 bucks https://www.yelp.com/biz/rays-auto-p...ly-culver-city
