Default TCP Global.com

Has any one bought paint from them or used there in house paint? Im wanting to shoot my eg this month and I want it to look decent but dont really feel like forking out big money on the daily. I know you probably get what ya pay for but I just wanted to see if anyone had any experience with it.
this is what Im looking at by the way if it helps

I've used their striping enamel. It's pretty good stuff. I'll be ordering some of their Hot Rod Flats this spring when I get my truck straight. Pretty quick on shipping,also.

$300+ for a gallon of basecoat and reducer?

Your best off going with some Dupont Chroma-Base or Matrix paints..... around the same price.... I wouldnt pay that much for something I've never heard of....even if the Dupont ends up costing $50 more, its well worth it!

remember he is the one selling it, he's not going to tell you another brand is better even if it's twice the price

I've used their single stage on more than one occasion, worked great for the money. the gallon kit I believe was around $120 for urethane. I would like to try out thier hot rod flatz this summer.

I've used them for all kinds of things. I love their products. I've shot single stage acrylic urethane, epoxy primer and regular base.

I think they have good prices for good products. They have a comparison chart on their website you should check it out. Right now I have 3 quarts of their kustom shop line blue pearl, it looks sick. I can't wait to shoot it.
