I was doing some test work on my truck to repair a few rust patches. I wanted a paint that would blend with my original paint. I saw the krylon glossy paint at wal-mart for $3 a can. I picked some up and began painting small patches today. For those thinking about a rattle-can paint job...WOW. give this stuff a shot. I put on 4 coats (this paint gets pretty thick)

I'll get some pictures soon. It's truly glossy, and looks almost as good as my original paint job.

And now to the point to this post. Has anyone else done their entire truck in this pain? If so, how many cans did it take and were you happy with the outcome?

I may not do the entire truck, just the small scratches and dings. But it's a great paint.

Yeah, "rattle can" gloss black is what I use on a lot of parts. But don't think because you get good results on small areas that you can do a large area and have it look good. Rattle cans don't work good on large areas, the spray pattern and flow is much too small to keep a wet edge.

I just recently did my HARLEY DRESSER in KRYLON FLAT BLACK and it turned out pretty good if you ask me I also used KRYLON FLAT CLEAR for a bit of protection here's what it looks like you be the judge and oh ya I used 4 cans but could have done it with 2-3 easy just put it on thick for extra protection and for under $30 bucks with the clear and sand paper can't really go wrong.

Pretty good rattle can jobs I must say.

Wow. What brand did you use?

The motorcycle looks amazing too. I'm still contemplating flat black on my truck (over the ENTIRE body). Right now i'm using the gloss just for the small rust patches so it semi blends with the rest of the body.
