Get Acrylic Enamel with catalyzing hardener.  The `King of Paints' according
to my book on bodyworking.  You can also wet-sand this enamel if you
make a run, but it is not necessary to colour sand to get a nice shine.

Regular synthetic enamel is difficult to wet sand because it
takes almost a month to fully cure.  Regular enamel is also a little
hard to work with because it goes on wet and stays wet for nearly
12 hours.  Any dust in the atmosphere will end up on your paint job,
so leave it in the paint booth over-night. (Do NOT drive the car home
the same day; it makes a mess out of the paint).

I did all the bodywork on my wife's car and then took it to a body-shop
for the paint job.  I gave it to him sanded and masked, he gave it back
to me painted in acrylic enamel.  I am very satisfied with the quality
of the paint.  The price for paint & labour was $175.

Acrylic Enamel is also a `tougher' paint; it stands up a little better
to stone chips, weather, etc.
