Has anyone tried this
http://www.eastwood.com/paints/2k-aero- ... aints.html
Eastwood makes a 2part ceramic paint in a spray can and an epoxy primer with a wide spray pattern.
Haven't tried it but Looks pretty cool to me
Here's their description
Eastwood's New 2-Component Ceramic Aero-Spray™. Paint has the durability and precision of a 2-component coating without the paint gun! The two-chamber design mixes the ceramic fortified coating and activator right in the can—no paint gun required—no mess to clean up. Innovative nozzle technology sprays with a wide spray pattern giving you excellent coverage and more control than conventional aerosols. Formulated with Eastwood's proprietary Nano Ceramic Technology to provide you a long lasting, beautiful and durable coating.


I have used Sparymax's brand and it works well, much better than normal aerosol cans.

Tractor Supply- Farm Implement, semi-flat black, or better known as John Deere Blitz Black is a Valspar product. However, I noticed that Tractor Supply no longer carries that brand anymore. They now have a brand called Majic. I have not used this brand of paint yet, but was told that it supposed to be just as good.
I have used the Valspar semi-flat black, and it works well...easy to use.

i have used both couldnt tell the difference

My wife and I painted our 93 Explorer using only spray cans - it actually came out good. We used the rust-prohibiting paint and then sprayed clear coat over it. It has held up well and does not look bad. Nice and shiny too.

When I used the Valspar satin black Farm Implement paint, I used the hardener and regular paint thinner. I've read on a blog where this guy painted a few trucks using this paint combination. He said he had good results, so i tried it. I didn't do a whole car, but tried it on a few panels. It worked quite well, too. Flowed out nicely.
