I'm the original owner of this 76 Olds, the paint is all original factory lacquer. It seems pretty shiny to me for original paint or even new.

The problem with base/clear systems is once the clear goes it's all over. I remember seeing a 1960 Bonneville in Smoke signals that was oxidized and the owner brought that original paint back to near new. I'm the original owner of a 69 H-0 LeMans and I shot that car for it's only respray in 92. The car has never been waxed and it gets a going over of Imperial Hand Glaze about four times a year. Paint is holding up good considering it's PPG Lacquer. Take a look at the link;
