Just saw that...guess they remembered me from some time ago and are sending me emails.
No idea who the manufacturer is, or any other details, just giving a heads-up in case it helps someone.

Looks and reads to me like its TCB type paints with a eastwood label on the can. Also I find the "paint for dummies" awkward. "Were gonna give you a gallon can three quarts full and you who can not do fractions just need to pour in this other stuff".

Who knows, might be helpful to some.

Obviously they feel there is a market for it. I myself really prefer a single stage on our old stuff vs base clear. Just looks more oem.

I figured folks here would know that Eastwood sells restoration supplies & tools, and that "single-stage" would therefore refer to automotive paint.
Also that anyone interested & familiar with restoration work would simply check Eastwood's site if interested.

Yeah, I'm sure it's a re-branded product, but it's another avenue. How you get a color match is unknown without a bank of toners.
But it could help somebody on a budget.

That's pretty wild they should want to promote it, since it is an existing product they have had for awhile.
Usually an email or media blitz is about something new.

I'd like to think maybe they are selling less and less single stage these days, and that might be the reason why.

Here's a video from 15 years ago promoting the product.

I guess I fell for it !
Haven't paid much attention to their paint line, always had a tech rep or jobber for that.
