It looks like the can says OMNI AU (MAE), I'm confused - this is from the PPG web site:

OMNI AU Urethane.

You can't go wrong with this PPG Automotive Urethane. A value-priced line that can be mixed as either a 2K acrylic urethane (MTK), or an acrylic basecoat (MBC). To save on inventory costs, both systems are mixed from the same 34 mixing bases and seven powered pearls. More than 14,000 color formulas are available, including many lead-free choices.


OMNI AE Fast Drying Acrylic Enamel.

A very economically priced PPG Acrylic Enamel. MAE offers the same range of colors in a 1k topcoat, previously only available in a two-component quality, yet allows the user to "upgrade" this to a two component technology if desired. MAE is mixed utilizing the same tints as used with AU topcoats, with the addition of a new mixing clear and drying agent. The same ancillary products are used as well, making OMNI AE the perfect addition to OMNI family of automotive refinish systems
 
I would have only (knowingly) purchased something single stage, but with that said I'd need to see if I have anything laying around with a definitive answer.
 
"A very economically priced PPG Acrylic Enamel. MAE offers the same range of colors...". acrylic enamel being the key words here.
 
I appreciate your attempt to help here but the can says it is both AU and MAE which contradict unless I am not understanding something.
 
Omni au is the MIXING SCHEME since it(mae) uses the same color toners as the au line. mae designates fast dry acrylic enamel. If it were base/clear the label should have a mbc in place of mae.
 
No problem. I like to be useful on the rare occasions I can... and their nomenclature isn't super intuitive without some inside knowledge. I'd be in the same boat trying to make sense of a circuitry diagram.
