Default Which Duplicolor or Krylon paint for rear fascia?

I know I know. I did a search here and on that other forum on all info about painting the rear fascia. There is even a 'painting your rear fascia 101' how-to out there that I have bookmarked. The problem is in all cases people use either flat, semi-gloss, or gloss dupicolor, or Krylon but with no pics of the can itself or any part#s. My car is a DD so I'm looking for a semi-gloss that can take the daily drive. So, I go to Pepboys and they have all kinds of dupicolor and krylon spray paints ranging from acrylic enamels to bumper touch-up versions . Specifically, which semi-gloss are people using for the rear fascia. I don't want to buy the wrong thing.

What kind of masking tape did you use on yours to get such a clean line and smooth curves ?

I masked everything,then painted!

PS.. tape the line before you sand,its safer that way!

^ I agree, tape off before you sand to avoid scratching an area your not painting.
