Duplicolor rattlecan spray paint works!

We decided to rattle can my car for now so it is all one color insted of the orignal four. I will get the whole car painted this spring, and it will also allow for me to save up for a good one. The rattle can paint is a little dull, but that's what happens when you use it. About a month or so from now, we'll wet sand and buff it back to a nice shine.

oldblueZ is back and better than ever! (This is the damage repair from a fender bender. We only painted the bumper, fender, and GFX)

.....and now for the PICS!

it's alot better than 4 colors and only a temporary measure, so it's worth it.

It looks good in person.

The only problem is that it snowed today and I don't have shelter for my camaro.

I will keep you updated on how it lasts. My buddy has spray painted his car before with Duplicolor and I couldn't believe it. It'll shine once we get to wet sand and buff too.
