    I believe he used the lacquer paint that duplicolor makes that comes in quarts.

    And be careful not to get any gasoline on that paint...it will bubble up. Lacquer and gas dont mix too well.

    hmmm looks better than before but you might want to state that you only payed $80 for materials in the OP so as to not have any confusion about the caliber of your paint job.

    "finally painted the sol champ white" really got me excited...

    needless to say, this is no champ white.

    but to wrap up... it looks better.
