I friggin hate this crap...
There is alot of rant and raving online about how great this spray paint is. On this website and others, they say it leaves a super hard super glossy finish. Looks just like OEM white paint.
Well I am here to post my review. While the color does match pretty well it does not spray very easy at all. About a week ago I sanded down and tried to paint my OEM hood. The can says re coat within 10 minutes or after a week. I thought that was funny so I sprayed, waited 10 minutes and put another coat on. First two coats went well. Sprayed fine, after the coat I turned the can upside down and cleaned the nozzle. I decided to add a third coat to get a nice consistent glossy finish. I started spraying and the can started to run low, and started to spray big drops of paint. I thought because the can was low it wasent spraying well. I then took another can shook really well and started spraying It was going well until this can got about 4/6 full and started splattering too! I thought I might of not shook it enough. So I shook it more and cleaned the nozzle. By now my hood is looking a litle crappy. I tried to finish it off but the can was really bad it was just throwing big globs of paint. I decided I lost and waited a week and a half for it to dry.
The paint felt super soft up until about day 7-8 of drying. I could easily scrap the paint off my hood. Around day 10 it felt dry (enough) I decided to sand down old paint and splatter spots. I washed the hood and let it dry over night.
Today I went to Walmart and another fresh can of paint. I shook the can all the way home from Wal-mart and then some. It is exactly 70 degrees outside, no humidity, and absolutely no wind. I thought it was perfect painting condition. I started spraying very slowly, holding the can vertical, and with even coats the hood. It was going great, after finishing one side I shook for bout 5 minutes and tried the other. About 80% of the way through the can i started to spatter again!
WTF, I though the can might be getting too cold from spraying so much at once. So I ran it under warm water, shook, and started again. It was spraying good for about 40 seconds then splattered again.
I just gave up, whats up with this stuff? It wont dry (thought it was because I waited to long between coats) and it wont spray (just "spits"). Maybe I am spraying too much at once? I feel like I have had much better experience with normal Krylon stuff.
F- dont use.
