Acrylic Urethane Paint What does urethane paint mean Enamel car paint vs polyurethane car paint Can you use exterior poly urethane over paint What type of prep to paint urethane over enamel?

I am not familar with "Acyrlic Urethane" paint, but I wonder if it is a urethane base paint that is applied and dried, but later has an acrylic clear-coat overlayed to bring out additional gloss. Urethane is more expensive, but lasts longer and is more durable than enamel or acrylic paints. Urethane and polyurethane paints are basically the same thing - toxic paints that require a complete body suit, full mask, and gloves for safe spaying while wet. I believe that Urethane paints are not allowed to be sprayed without a license in California. Applying different manufacturers urethane paints over each other without the proper advance preparation can cause chemical reaction problems that discolor or flake the paint and void the paint OEM warranty. Each manufacturer has their own urethane additive or primer that may allow their OEM paint to be applied over the original paint. You have to check with the paint distributor or manufacturer for details on this. This paint additive or advance preparation step is how many aftermarket paint manufacturers can make their own blend of paints to match the car manufacturer original fleet colors. However, paints made over 20 years ago may have chemical components that are not compatible with newer paints and may fail when Urethane is applied over them. For example I have a 40 year old VW that has OEM baked enamel paint on engine parts. If I apply urethane paint over the enamel, it will start to flake because of the engine temperature and chemical reaction between the paints. The best solution I have found for this enamel problem is to not take a chance - I strip the parts down to the bare metal and paint with a primer and then a black gloss urethane. Since the gloss component is already mixed in, there is no need for me to overlay with a acrylic clear coat.
