imported_joewelcome Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 Kalifornia Kolors were made in the late 80's thru the early 90's by Borden and Sherwin Williams (SWP). Check to see who made yours, and then you have your answer. Personally i think the graphics are so nauseatingly neon, it's necessary. More popular to collect on one coast for entirely obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_joewelcome Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 i have no clue how canadian cans are labeled, i've never even seen one aside from online. the SWP "flatball" krylons are ALL dated 1991, and/or with '94 or later revision dates. clearly the mandarin is a borden can (pre-1991). krylon took the "rust magic" formula out of their decorator line in '83 but that was in the states. that can doesn't look that old, but anything's possible. it is canada afterall. that's all i got. got anymore of those? let me know.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seeking Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 for mr. joe welcome. turns out the derusto isnt 59 at all, im just gulliable and believe everything i read. im sorry, i just wanted so much to believe it was older than my mom! oh well. any idea on the age of the red devil? im thinking probably 80's? you cant see the name on the red one, but its made my 'pactra' and on the right side, it has an airplane flying up towards the cap, and obviously in big ass letters it says 'DOPE' which although making no sense, is cool as hell. yeah joe, i can get em for trade if your interested. any idea on this bbq red can? its both a paper label, and also barcode? no date on the can. rare at all? finally, my light beige that i keep talking about to the point of annoyence. did i mention the cap says 'new'?

imported_joewelcome Posted March 18, 2002 Share Posted March 18, 2002 ok, before everyone gets crazy about this, LIGHT BEIGE is not a 'crazy money' color. do not confuse scarcity among collectors with rarity and big money. we are can obsessives who find certain colors from certain times. i think the idea that a few people are looking for it was misconstrued somewhere. can someone show me a Krylon Lemon Yellow can? NOT Glowing Lemon Yellow, just Lemon Yellow #1815. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJohnStudd Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Razzle Dazzle buy krylon Anyone know any thing about Razzle Dazzles by Krylon. My lil bro tried to bring like 5 cans back to me from mexico but they didnt let him take them on the plane. If you got any flicks of a can please post it up. Are they rare or what???

imported_joewelcome Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 the big wind-up (played to the tune of 1980's "The Big Throwdown" by South Bronx).... 1) Kane is talking about what appears to be a Canadian can on Seeking's shelf. Canadian cans have a different caution warning than US cans do, using three symbols of warning. on some Canadian cans, the can design is adapted to comply to this. **canadian collectors- any info on when this started? how about Canadian cans without that warning on them, if any? 2) i don't know where this misspelling thing came from. but while we're on topic- the proper spelling is Rust-Oleum. Rusto is fine for a abbreviation. If you can't spell Fire Hydrant, well..... 3) Rust-oleum, probably due to their industrial roots, kept lead pigments in several styles of their paint until roughly 1970. supposedly there was last lead in 1972 Forest Green, but the 72 Forests i've seen do not contain lead. the 1967 FH Red had lead in it, and possibly the 1970 (confirm, slyle?) the paint industry knew what lead could do in its dried, chipping form and usually made it pretty clear what did and didn't have lead on the cans (excepting of course, EXTREMELY old paint predating aerosol paint). if so, rusto cans says it has lead on the back of the can. lead colors, incidentally, are often whites, reds and yellows and colors made from these colors. 4) Sparvar gets crazy disrespect for no good reason. this mysterioso krylon sub-division is a pretty scarce thing and they made lots of the same colors as krylon. nice cans too, especially the pre-borden ones. i hope someone out there takes their sparvar seriously, it's just as worth collecting as any other paint! /////take me out with the fader/// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imported_joewelcome Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 can value is strongly based on availability. the only way to learn availability is to get out there and start looking. what's discontinued? check krylon.com and rustoleum.com- everything that's not there is discontinued. including terracotta. rustmagic- for those who think the 'techniques' page is the best part of subway art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slyle CMC Posted May 15, 2002 Author Share Posted May 15, 2002 Worth 3 bucks to who? It all depends on what you want to collect, and why. Flatballls are a good place to start, sometimes borden bar codes. Its a start and most can still be found on shelves with a little digging. Aswer the first few questions, and you might find an answer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizm Posted May 23, 2002 Share Posted May 23, 2002 not really...just stocking up on some colonial blue, mauve, and rose. hoping to sell some if anyone would like any. the guy that owns the place said i could write down shit i was looking for and he'd call me if he got any in. he said he got someone a jungle green one time.

Slyle CMC Posted May 24, 2002 Author Share Posted May 24, 2002 Flat Balls dont always mean better quality. I think it was in the mid 80's that the quality of paint was changed around. I know with rusto that 83 cans spray like krylon but still cover like rusto, (Basically they dont stutter when they talk). I think older krylons (name labels and older) are the better ones, but I have not used them in a while and really dont notice too much of a difference. Look at pacific blue, that is a great color, everything that krylon should be. There are alot of factors why some colors like yellows and oranges suck and the blues and grey (or should i say gray) cover good. I dont want to get into it now, maybe another day, or maybe someone can pick up where I leave off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest newyuckshity Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 ^^^ yes the hot pink paper label short cuts are gone... hold on to it. festival green discontinued as well school bus yellow is as good as painting with lemonade, pure garbage. manderin i have not seen in a while either. mauve is everyday stuff. i stumbled upon some Krylon California colors... remember those? if anyone is interested let me know im down to trade sell or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slyle CMC Posted May 29, 2002 Author Share Posted May 29, 2002 Hate to tell you but a price guide is usless at this point, and just way too much work. If you are collecting only for shear value, I would say to quit now. A can is only worth what someone would pay for it. Most of the time I just pass up on some cans just cause the only thing I could do with them is use them. As far as shortcuts, I cant help you with them. Joe whats your take on all this?

imported_joewelcome Posted May 29, 2002 Share Posted May 29, 2002 what's my take? well, i believe that most, if not all of the shortcut cans i've ever seen are paper labels. then again, i don't pay much attention to them. the day a price guide comes out for spray cans is the day i quit. priceguides cause more problems than they solve. i want nothing to do with it. like slyle said, if you're collecting for the cash you're not gonna last very long.

Slyle CMC Posted May 30, 2002 Author Share Posted May 30, 2002 Well the cans I was posting was nothing special. I was more or less showing people the different generations of krylons cans, if anyone noticed. You start with the old midget cans, then the early 60's small tops. From there I took you to the rookie borden year with the borden script, next was similar, spray paint cans, aka fat seams, aka 68 cans. Though they were produced well after 68. From there you got your name on cans notch tops ( not pictured regular name on cans). Next Ing caps, then name labels, and last bar codes. Though sherman williams procuced barcodes, and even PAPER LABELS, I prefer to stop at the borden years. Uhhhhhh, ok, I AM DONE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
