In the middle of a much larger project and thought I'd post....Maybe this will help somebody out.

I wanted to get as close to the OE 69 1/2 A12 hood paint as I could, without turning it into a lifelong pursuit, and without paying a shop $1000+, without going to the resto guru for $800 worth of paint, or anything like that.
I do realize they varied from car to car somewhat, but there was a certain texture I'd seen on show vehicles + untouched original cars that I was after.

SEM hot rod black, PN HR010 has good reviews on Amazon + a good shot of an an a12 style hood and that convinced me to try it.
(I got my best price somewhere other than Amazon. Shop carefully.)
It got me about as close as I will likely ever get.

This is 2k primer sanded to P320.
(You can go finer if you want, but the following steps more than hide any sanding scratches 2x over)
