Yeah, I will mention it. That is probably part of the confusion.
They are thinking to paint it in a basecoat lacquer and I need to
see if they'll do enamel or whatever it was from the Factory.
Do you know what type of paint (enamel or lacquer) that the factory
did the trim with?
Do they make a non basecoat/clearcoat lacquer based paint?
