Like the title says I am looking for a quart to spray through a regular gun.

Thanks in advance.

I looked at the Por-15 kit but I always hear horror stories of it falling off. And then the argument starts about whether or not it is any good?

If you want the right shade of paint (as in OE correct) POR15 won't do it. Try Frank Badelsons paint if you want the closest match to OEM out there (see pics).

If you want to have some mixed this is a VERY close match as well:

The Color is Chrysler Engine Turquoise. PPG Delstar DAR Acrylic Enamel. The part number is: DAR18519 H

Also Eastwood has engine paint by the quart and is closer than POR15. Nice to have choices.

there were 2 shades of "blue" over the years, too. the old "BB turquoise" and the more recent "318 blue".

Thanks I'm thinking this will work pretty good as my local store also mixes paint. It doesn't have to be an exact match, just something pretty close.
