NAPA was always good to me with paint, when I painted my 93 it was a perfect match to the factory paint (obviously the factory paint was beat at that point, but it matched newer maximas at the time)

I worked for PpG for about a year and a half in one of their fine chemicals plants, in Houston. Quality company. Paint and coatings have been their business for a very long time.

My brother worked for PPG for a couple of years in the automotive refinish department (Clackamas, Oregon). He told me that everything they make is good quality, even their low end Omni line. He supplied paint for a couple of show winning cars that my uncle and cousin built. One was a 1940 Chevy and the other was a lowrider 56 GMC truck.

If you have an authorized PPG shop paint your car, all PPG products have a lifetime warranty.
