nocomply Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 the one thing i do know was that family dollar had paint, i used to live right by one when i was a kid, i would get the dollar general shit though (really terrible paint) that miracal can is dollar general brand i believe. thanks for the info about the terracottas btw. does anyone ever score cans at garage/yard sales??

Slyle CMC Posted October 27, 2010 Author Share Posted October 27, 2010 garage/yard/estate sales are good for cans, just you gotta hit alot of them up. Don't just look for it, but make a point to ask. Do best when they have town wide sales... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imported_joewelcome Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 that ace avocado is an excellent example of how MOST avocados are awesome and thick paint. loved that stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocomply Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 thanks for the info...ive always stayed away from epoxy paint, cuz it just seemed weird to me, i figured it wouldn't be compatable with normal paint. but i guess it's just a hard glossy enamel...? the same spot had one can of colorplace avocado but i didn't pick it up. you think it's worth grabbing? it's kind of over priced, i always shop there so i'm not gonna rack it.....i hope to check some flea markets this weekend for cans.

EPMDfan Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 there's a spot in queens with tons of red devil tins. bunch of big faces as well I'm pretty sure I have been in the store you are talking about. They had damn near every color of the Red Devil tins and all I could remember was thinking dmn I wish they had cans... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucksoe Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hal, they did not switch them from gloss to satin, but instead offered a satin line. Most likely in response to AA. True blue and banner red also came in satin. A spot by me still has a grip of the banner red. I prefer the satin colors, and the true blue is almost IMPOSIBLE to find. I think most of my terracottas are satin. I still have a couple cases of them, cleared out a few closeout spots in New England area that were carrying them a couple years ago. I used so much of that color I was just sick of it. 67 cents!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varivaldi Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Heads up. Big Lots - $2 a pop for the Army Grn. and Harbor Bl. Picked up this week. The PT orange and those yellows are from the spot that has the rustos in the pics preceding this one. Just a random one off type store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slyle CMC Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 Those hardhats can be a bitch. You need to make a blaster cap (Pull the center out of any cap, and cut a bigger notch in stem) to clear them, and even those don't always work. Shake them REAl good....once they start working, it is great paint... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jib25 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Just looking at Scottie can designs... Kind of funny how the color name appears on each in the same place along with the 'Stops Rust' logo, but on the CLEAR they do away with the 'Stops Rust' and put the massive CLEAR font just so ya know! No reason really why it couldn't have just been like the color names up top. Altho'... very helpful if you grabbed one by mistake and were about to use it in the yard/tunnels... A lil help from your friendly folks at Rust-Oleum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
