I saw this paint at O'Reileys and for about $50 I can repaint the front valance on the Dakota. Anyone try it...this is a worktruck. www.duplicolor.com

i used it over a year ago on a spoiler for a neighbors car. it is laquer paint, so its easy to work with. i used it with the clear coat also.I didnt bother to buff it as the gloss was ok when i was finished with the clear. overall i was happy with the result and the price wasnt too bad either.

used it on a hood scoop a last year. used their primer, artic white and clear. the primer was suppose to be gray but when mixed it was white. sprays really easily decided to change the color of the car so I repainted it with a good paint system. So I can not say how it holds up.

Didn't use that but used some Intense Blue rattle can I got to match my Dak R/T's paint along with some of the same brand clear. It turned out great. I did acidentally spill some kind of fluid on it from working on the engine and it left the clear needing redone. So it's not very chemically durable. Good for a decent looking temp fix. I even wet sanded and buffed it out for an even better finish. Some are surprised of how it turned out considering what I used.

When I have more free cash, I'll redo it with better paint.

I used it to do a touch up on my 03 Dually a couple years ago. It was easy to work with and looks pretty good but the color didn't match. Truck's Dodge Bright White and the paint was closer to bone white.

My original post said enamel but it is lacquer. My intention was to get a $10 (on sale) Harbor Freight touchup gun and spray the valance. The DupliColor red probably won't match but it is the lower valance and on my worktruck. For another $24.95 I can put dual black stripes.

You can go to a ppg or automotive paint store and they will mix you enough to use in this disposable spray device. The guy at a store I used for years said it works pretty good. I can't recall if the propellant was separate or not. It wasn't expensive and they should be able to match the paint perfectly with those paint spectrometer or whatever it's called. Oh, that would be a urethane paint too, I believe.

Only thing I really heard about it is because it's an uncatalyzed laquer, as in no hardener, it will be susceptable to being damaged by chemicals. Someone explained it to the effect of when enamel paint dries, something about the make up of it causes it to not be able to be reliquified by solvent, where this laquer(with no available hardener) will. Someone claimed they used it and a gas spill messed with the finish. This is just what I read on another forum, no first hand experience.
