Yes it's possible. At least you can get the two different paint systems to look closer to he same.
Be sure to use some Meguiar's #7 at some point on the original single stage black paint as this will bring out the full richness of color. Another way of saying this is it will darken the paint.
This is actually one of the goals for the 1956 Chevy Bel Air we buffed out last week. Most of the car has the original single stage paint.
Some portions of some panels have newer single stage paint.
Some panels have been repainted using a basecoat/clearcoat paint system.
Our job and goal was to restore the richness of color and gloss to the original, dull faded and oxidized single state paint to match the color and gloss of the repainted areas.
If done successfully this would give the entire car a more uniform appearance.
Sad to say, I have not had time to process the pictures from this project and won't have time any time soon... too much going on...
