Default What paint to use. Custom dash (bondo)......

I made a custom dash using bondo. It now houses my h/u and LCD. I had it painted with regular spray paint.

I really want to repaint it with something else.

What kind of paint should i use?

Default Actually, It's "Pittsburgh Plate Glass" - no respect for the "H", man?!?!
