paint for barwork

trying to find a decent brand of paint for doing barwork and the likes. What do people use. I don't want to go the way of powdercoating, but want something that is quite durable.

Re: best budget diffs GU vs 80 vs MOG vs D60

you can convert land rover Sals to D60 easily enough. Just need to do the front then. A guy on Aulro was making and selling front Sals housings, or you could ship a complete one over from the UK, then convert it to D60.

order them from Paddocks in the UK, much much cheaper. Front calipers will bolt straight on, rears have different offset i think, not sure about puma ones though. I run a sals in the rear of mine though.
