I have nothing but positive things to say about Aervoe
paint, I've used it in gallons and in spray cans. The
one thing I do note is that I did experience a huge
color shift between different lots of spray paint. So,
if you are going to do a project make sure you get
enough spray paint to do the job and make sure it's
all from the same lot. The gallons I had I brushed on,
thinned it out with regular reducer, did the job on a
hot day, used a fine brush and it flowed out like
glass after the sun hit it good. In fact from about 10
feet it looks like a pro spray job, some guys couldnt
believe it was brushed. Plus as an old timer told me
once at a show, they always brushed the vehicles when
he was in the Army, he wished they had spray cans.
