i cringe at the term "rat rod". i agree with hot rod flatz since it's pre-mixed in the can.

Hot rod Flatz is nothing more than Omni Single Stage with flattening agent mixed in. You can get the same colors from your local paint shop for cheaper than you can order the Hot Rod Flatz. If you want to do it right, use whatever base you want for your color, then use either PPG Flexed N Flat Clear, Alsa Soft Feel Clear, or the Dupont version of the flat clear. Adding flattening agent to a regular clear coat will only get you a semi gloss effect. Which is far from what you will be shooting for.

So I could go to say the house pain isle in the local Wal-Mart and pick out a color and use it for automotive paint?
