What is the difference between 1 cote process two cote process etc ? I found a body shop that will take my car apart and paint it right, but i wanna make sure I get the right paint. I saw an Infinity g35 2003 color Garnet fire where would i be able to get this color ? would I have to get it from the Infinty dealer? Any advise would be great

You can get this color. It is a 2 stage base/clear urethane paint (as all new cars are going base/clear). Go into the dealer and ask to get the paint code, which is generally a part of the VIN # or close to it on the tag. Go to your local auto paint shop and have them mix the color. You painter can also get the color mixed from his supplier or if he has a mixing machine can mix it himself. To get it to look exact you will need to do the two stage system, not a single stage.
