We painted my brother's 383 with the MP paint last year, and it was great.
It seemed to have a different label than MP stuff I had used in the past, but no probelms with being thin, runny, or faulty nozzles. Less than 2 cans to fully cover. Prob cound have done a thin coat withn 1.

It's not rattle can paint, you'll need to shoot it with a gun, it's single stage Delstar Acrylic Enamel. I've used it and it matches original paint samples very closely.
This was done with Frank's (Badelson/Roger Gibson) engine paint. I like it because it was not (too) glossy.

Man, Do you even start that engine? If my engine bay looked like that, I'd throw away the key...
the picture is from summer 09 and theres about 7-10K miles on it then... I keep up on it and make sure it stays tight and clean up whenever something does seep out. The T-stat housing is my problem area along with keeping a close eye on the right side valvecover.

I used rattle can turquoise from TotallyAutoInc on my '65 and '67 BB's. Even with separate orders for more, the color of the different paint batches matched up perfectly. No complaints here. -Art
