any flaws in the bodywork are going to show up no matter what paint you use. that is why they say a paintjob is only as good as its prep work. you will hate sanding by the end of it but it will be worth it - do it right or dont do it at all
Yes and no.
As always this depends on the quality/brand of paint you use, but generally most 2 part polyurethane paints are a little more forgiving in regards tiny flaws/swirl marks from the sander etc. i.e. You dont generally have to sand the undercoat with as fine paper as you would with acrylics.
Ive never used any cheap 2 part polyurethanes so they might suck just as much as acrylics with the little swirl marks/flaws.
