Funny story about those "American" cans with the eagle on em on the last page....

 

A friend of mine ordered some blubber color cans when they were first mentioned on the internets. The couple cans he eventually recieved had odd paper labels and said something like Promo cans? Or something weird like that. He noticed something odd about the cans, so he took the paper label off and took some thinner to the cans. Turned out the cans he was sent were really just those American Minty Green cans spray painted silver. Weird.

what kinds of places do you guys go to to get these carloads of old cans????? :confused2:

 

i called all of the "mom and pop" hardeware stores in my area and they all said that they had cleared their stock a while ago or just dont have any....

 

another question: what are the 10 colors of IllBronze Wet Paint, i know Screaming Yellow and Squeeze Me Orange, but what are the other 8 color names?

What up kid.The info on that can is 168 GLOSS FIESTA ORANGE and it is fortified with epoxy to stop that nasty rusty stuff.

just to let all you paint sniffers know tonight @ 10:00 pm eastern standard time the history channel will be airing the compleat history of paint. I can't see them not mentioning Srraypaint or the impact graffiti has had concerning it.

They just had the one I posted. My homie gripped a few different brands that looked as old and older. I'll flick and post them when I can.

 

Slightly off topic... What's the hype with Red Devil? I know this spot that has mad Red-Devil but when I tried to use it, it was garbage. I shook them mad long and all but they still suck. Did they dip on their quality at some point?
