satin black rattle cans
« on: 14 June 2012, 18:23 »
I posted this in cosmetic matters this morning but not expecting an answer in there any time soon


I'm soon going to be rattle canning my car satin black, do I need a specific type of paint or would any industrial paint work?

cheers

Really? Satin black? Looks sh!t!

Satin blue or green would be a better choice

I would never put cheap sh!t paint on a car too

if its a sh!tter, like my old polo, i did a £30 paint job, by using dulux exterior grade high gloss, thinned down to 50/50 with std thinners, applied through a spray gun, onto Red oxide primer, nobody, ever believed me it was dulux untill i showed them the cans......

they do exterior grade satin too......

heres my lil joker of a polo... a car that didnt take itself seriously pmsl
