Don't use enamel for the body. Use acrylic, it is better.

Hi. I use DuPont automotive paints applied using a Badger 200 airbrush. Real automotive paints give out a very good shiny finish. I have tried a lot of different paints before but after using automotive paints, I don't think I'll go back to the other paints. Although, you really need to prep the body well when using this paint. If not, you might "cook" your model.
