Guest crack is wack Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 yo slyle they had maybe 3 of the blues and one can of the yellow in those hobby paints. they also had sets of borden "home accent" i guess the first version of the short cut they were dated 1990 they also had a paper label set of Illinos Bronze Hobby work paint looked to be about the same age. the illinois line features a few dope colors my fave being "miami green" which is a short cut version of mint green. ill post the illinois bronze ones in a sec but lemme know if you want the blues or yellow i dont know how much longer theyll be there. the store was seriously depleted since last i checked....

imported_joewelcome Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 paper label marking paint borden/krylon... off the top of my head i want to say that they might have started that in the early 80's but i know for a fact that most of the ones out there are very late borden run. like 85-91. yet another example of "don't let the paper labes fool ya!".. those are probably just like many of the industrial line, which look older then they are. krylon used paper labels on and off on different cans all the time, even into the SWP years.

Guest mikro137 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 is that the can where they try and hustle on the "yo dondi used this in the children of the grave train" card? 50$ for sand rusto (regardless of who used a similar can) is downright tacky , and obviously said person will be collecting basball cards whenever they becom the hot shit again. fuck that.

Slyle CMC Posted June 19, 2003 Author Share Posted June 19, 2003 That tuff and easy is water based dont use it, its shit. Some store owner wanted to give me a big box of them, I had to pass, the only thing they are good for is book ends...if that. Canadian paint, mmm...those older krylons look interesting, and tremco, thats some good shit, at least the ones I got. I am looking to get my hands on some older canadian panit, I wonder about the dates, they say spray paint, not interior exterior, but I think there is an american krylon can under, wonder which one.

imported_joewelcome Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 not a dumb question at all.. rust-oleum is the easiest, you can often even tell the MONTH of production on older cans. copyrights are clear. krylon is tougher, but let's see.. sticker-capped cans are early 80's to 91, paper label BORDENS can be from 66 to 80 (several other factors). check manufacturer and on sherwin williams cans, check the Revision date (Rev) other brands are all different.. but think about it like this- barcodes came in in the late 70s- krylon was one of the first. if there's no real warning on the front of the can, it might well be a 1960 or earlier can. a paper label is NEVER a sign of age on a random can- lots of people still use paper labels. there's lots of other factors, and since you're in canada, it'll be still different. post up pictures for more data.

paint junky Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 well said^^^^ also to add>>>>>> Also, to add to joe's reply, there are a few other ways to decipher some cans date. •One way is if you turn the can over you'll notice on most cans you probably have ever seen, the bottom is concaved (one piece of metal). This is what all the new cans have but in 60's and back w/ the exception of a small handful of brands the bottoms were made with what seems to be two pieces of metal and instead of a nice smooth concave you will rather see the beginning of a concave and then a flat piece over that i'll have to post a flick of it... this is apparent in the red devil supreme qualities... the older fat lips* had this bottom though i have some cans w/o fat lips and the older styled bottom (go figure) •then there is always the cap method... depending on which top a can is covered in can help ya out also... obviously metal small tops are tell tale signs that you have a vintage can... usually found on early 60's and back... then you have some plastic small tops which are few and far between yet still exist this must have beeen a transitional period... whatever, most good co's didn't rock 'em so fuck 'em...lol Next trend in caps were big "tin caps" seen on 65 and back rustos and 66 krylons etc. Then came fat lips which were most notable on the red devil supreme qualities, but can also be seen if you scroll up and peep that nu-kote avocado or the illinois bronze spray o namel i posted (might be one page back) these are fresh for display but a bitch to get off ( you'll see many used cans of this that look like they had surgery performed on em w/ a screwdriver to get them off... many got torn up) oh well. There were all types of fat lip variations depending on the brand... then came plastic caps which we could spend an hour on but to make a long story short, the early versions had no writing on the tops and no pry notch, then they got a pry notch and then some companies got writing on the tops... Krylon had the bright idea of making notchtops that never seem to fit correctly n the cans...lol... I mean this all varies, wet looks have the freshest plastic caps in my eyes and they look nothing like a krylon or rusto top... there are many different types, i'll just leave it at that... so that is a little bit more data to add to what joe spoke of already... hope it helps :D the method is in the medium<<<<...

Slyle CMC Posted June 20, 2003 Author Share Posted June 20, 2003 Paint junky I have to correct you on some of your info. Small tops do not auctomatically mean 60's cans. I have perfect examples of spray ons with small metal tops dated mid 70's. Though I will say a small top mostly means majority of the cans with them are old. One other thing though, when talking about tops, is that you must remeber where you find cans. Even companies themselves have not kept things consistent. If a can is found on a store shelf there is a good chance your getting the right top, though you never know what could have happend over the years. Out of a garage or "some other" place, there is always the chance the tops have been switched, especially if the can has been used. I dont think there is much more I can add to this for now, if the can has a one or two digit zip code, it is most likely early 60's or older. No warning at all on front probably 50's or later. Styles of cans changed over the years, and some companies did one thing while others lagged behing. At a time when seymour was producing their cylinder cans, you had companies producing midget cans. They soon transisted too the normal cans we know of today, but instead of 12oz you had pound cans and more. Joe what was the larges you seen in a regular size can? I am loosing my train of thought so I'm out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retard.AK Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 this one may be a stupid question,but a rather simple one thats bothered me for a good bit.....what does O.D. stand for (as in O.D. Khaki)..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_joewelcome Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 come one come all ok.. donnie- O.D. Khaki is a military color used in camouflage color schemes. you might have heard of Olive Drab before- it's the common darkened green/gray that army-navy stores are full of. O.D.- Olive Drab clasico- the first lineup of American Accents was in 2 waves. there's the 1991 cans and the 1994 cans (in 94 they introduced the Tapestry Line and expanded the Classic Line).. they look identical- and some of the 1994 colors happen to be more scarce. CIRCULATION? that's anyone's guess. the new cans are 1996 if i remember correctly. considering all the money spent on making it, distro'ing it and shipping the stuff, everyone wants to at least see some return on the investment of the cans in the stores. so you might see some cans for a while when it's considered a real dog color. sadly, Autumn Gold and Indian Spice were dogs, at least commercially. that paint's so good it gives me heartburn. this is the business......

imported_joewelcome Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 clasico (damn i wish it was spelled the same as the tomato sauce) had to hit the books on this one.. Slate Blue, to my estimation, was dead in the water after Borden introduced it in 89. HOWEVER, both Slate and Colonial appear on the SWP (Sherwin Williams Paints) 12/91 chart and the SWP 1/92 chart. The only Slates i've ever seen are Bordens, but then again it wasn't too popular neither. Another nice paint condemned to the salvage store.

Guest mikro137 Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 the slate blue colonial blue thing is sorta the anomlie (sp) that was more or less common practice for every paint company for years. comapnies like krylon and rustleum are notorious for indroducing colors by reigon. so one mans rare color , is another mans fill in color for 900 pieces because its saturated in an area. a good example is berry ping painters touch , we here in my city have to go way out of the way to find that stuff , but i know cats in other cities , and that is a color that they use constantly because they have a surplus , however they are teh ones bitching that they cant get spa blue... of which we have the vise versa nahimean. sorry if i confused anyone , i lost my train of thought.
