Default I'm painting my Honda Prelude...what brand of paint....?

I'm about to paint my Honda Prelude ('95) a metallic pink/magenta colour. I don't know alot about exterior painting on cars, but I will take it to a professional autobody place to paint it professionally. I was wondering what types of brands were best? House of Kolors, maybe?Thanks!

Dont use the House of Kolor pink or magenta. I have used it several times and it fades FAST. For some reason its just these 2 colors and their neon colors that do this. Unless its going to be a show car and not see much road time then its fine. I would point you in the direction of either a Sherwin Williams or PPG color.
