Slop Gray question.

Thanks guys! I doubt we will be doing any suspension stuff underneath, just the underhood stuff.  

Here’s a pic of the paint I used. $4 at wallyworld.  Can’t beat it!

 Now I see the real problem, you were using the can to the left!

+1, way too light, needs to be darker

 That's too funny Don. Not quite what I had in mind, but actually a better thought.

Thats a very nice German double bock!

I was just trying to stay in the scope of the discussion about color shades.

Uncle Sam treated me to 2-1/2 years in Germany, Pilsner, Bock, and Doppelbock were all good. I sampled them many times, just to make sure my taste buds were OK.  ::beer::

Ah, German Stark Bier...I used to have a few of those and then went to bed to sleep it off

Thanks for all the input fellas. I think I found a color that’s a little better than what I originally had. It’s rustoleum slate gray. What do you guys think?? I wanted to get these done this weekend so I didn’t want to wait and ship from NPD. 1 can plus shipping was over $20. I got this at Walmart for $4.

Hey Kevin. I found this old post and I'd like to buy this paint. I went to Walmart and they want $30 a can now shipped out of Sacramento! Can you please provide me with a picture of the can with the part number to confirm? Thanks, Kevin K.

Left isn’t the word for that can!!

That stuff doesn't even qualify as beer imo.
We're digging back a bit on this thread, I just got up and had to do some serious thinking as to what was going on here.. OK now I got it!!

 

[kevken1959]

I just saw the picture of the can earlier in the thread. Can't wait to use it! Unfortunately, I already PAID $30 + TO GET THE ONLY CAN LEFT OF SLOP MEDIUM GRAY FROM ALL OF NPD SHIPPED FROM SACREMENTO!!

Hmm, glad I picked a can up last year when I was in Ocala.

Another option for under-hood satin slop Gray is this Dupli-Color product. All the auto parts stores sell it. It's super durable, adhears like crazy and is the correct satin Gray shade.

That's so funny. I've used that too! It looks even better clear coated. Kevin.
