I've tried so many paints (plastikote/ppg urethanes/enamels) and most of them can work. It's just a matter of knowing how to compensate for variables like Temp, Humidity, thinner/reducer ratio. I've had some work one day and not work the next day. It's a science and you truly have to figure it out for yourself. While I didn't spend $1K, I did spend a lot of money. Those high end PPG paints aren't cheap! I'll post pics once I'm allowed to again
