I used engine enamel and am pleased with it. That went over a chrome framed bmx. 8 months and it's still in great condition. I won't really ever worry about getting touchup mixed for a color that is dropped from a product lineup. I can get New Ford Gray all day long from several engine enamel manufacturers and a whole can is less than a small tube of touch up at the diy auto parts store. LOL, Ford isn't going away, but Chrysler & GM, as long as they keep getting bailouts I guess they'll be around. but seriously there are more paint colors for engine enamel today than there were 30 years ago or whatever. They've even got generic engine enamel colors.
