I seem to remember it took a long time to dry. I might be wrong on that. <br />One reason I'm trying out the Ace Premium brand paints is the fast, workable drying times. You still have to follow the re-coat times listed on the cans, but you can sand down that first coat faster. The spray nozzles are like the more expensive Duplicolor style.

On the blog I try to use paints that are available to most builders at their local hardware store. <br />I'm continuing to have very good results with the ACE Premium enamels, except for the Gloss White.Chris Michielssenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06907925631001358372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612012025300219489.post-26631459231902197992019-11-22T10:41:57.377-05:002019-11-22T10:41:57.377-05:00Chris,

Since I spend a pretty good penny on my vintage builds, I decided to go back to old formula Krylon. Unfortunately I can only order it online under its new name ACRYLI-QUIK™ Acrylic Lacquer, it is their industrial line. It is the same old Krylon we used to use back in the day.scigshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08305320152380416847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612012025300219489.post-67223405657908394082019-11-14T15:09:24.403-05:002019-11-14T15:09:24.403-05:00Hi Metal,

A friend gave me an off brand of gray spray paint once. It was great paint. I mail ordered six cans of gloss white and six cans of gloss black - they were crap!

The can I bought is somewhere around a satin finish. The result is far more consistent than Rusto, but not the finish I was looking for.metalhead1986https://www.blogger.com/profile/10398186667236630069noreply@blogger.com
