The paint code has just changed for the types of paint that meet the EPA  
guidelines
DAU did not so now you can get it in DBC and DBU these are PPG paints
both are basecoat clearcoat that I find more work that its worth and  
fighting the gloss is difficult plus the color is a bit off. Even the DAU was a  bit 
gray.
 
So the new number is DBC or DBU 33584
 
BUT 
 
I just had a color made for me that I painted the raffle car and while the  
color was good and the gloss level down from what the clearcoats do it was a 
bit  high in solvents and there was some scissing in the paint. 
 
I am having another batch made up and if it works then there will be a  
single stage paint that we can use and forget the basecoat clearcoat stuff which  
will make it more affordable to re do fascias.
 
Right now its about $100 in paint materials to do one fascia with all the  
prep and such.
