Default Milano Red in a rattle can?

Where can I get it? I searched but didn't find anything, and for some reason I can't create this thread in the Appearance forum....says I'm not authorized?

I have heard that you can go to body & paint shops and they can put it in a rattle can for you, is this true?

what are u planning on painting, if its touchup u can just ask them to make u the spray can but it wont match exactly, but if its not a big deal then do it, if it is a big deal to get the color exact then just get whatever u need painted by a body shop


i was gonna paint my fender with that spray paint ideal but it wasent as cheap as i thougth and i knew i would mess up so i just payed a shop a lil more to paint it and it looks perfect

It's my WW RS front lip, so the color needs to be exact

I guess I will have to just pay a shop to spray it, but I know it's gonna get all chipped up in no time, so I figured I would just do it myself. I'm pretty good with the rattle can.

Any idea how much it would be to spray it?

You can always get cans/touchup paint from http://www.paintscratch.com but it isn't going to be cheap.

Your best bet would be to find a local autobody paint supplier and have them make some paint for you.

If you have a body shop do it make sure that they add a flex additive to the paint. That will prevent it from chipping and cracking on you.

Yea, the regular spray can stuff just isn't going to last long at all and will look like crap.

Check out that http://www.paintscratch.com/cgi-bin/storefront.cgi place. You can have the flex added to the spray can, although they only do it for the clearcoat, not the base coat. Something to look into though.
