I'd love to make it happen for you, but none of the paint in the flicks is up for trade. The only thing I would consider letting a display can go for is a Nybco Wet Look can in as good condition as possible. Like the two in the flick above.

i just came up on a shit ton of those derusto cans (1 sparay in bad shape, and a gang of the quarts and pints) i really got into the derusto steez recently , but the colors are amazing and the label design (the black background jams from the late 60's or so) is on point as well. regardless its a more or less slept on brand.

I really like Derusto paint. In recent years I think they've taken a turn for the worse, though. I got a couple cans of hi-heat black from Big Lots a week or two ago and the shit is watery garbage. Very surprising. The older stuff is pure gold, and the tins are excellent for painting canvases, if you're into that. I recall them making a really nice clover green lookalike. The only problem is that it takes forever to dry, like Rusto-leum.

well, your boy is fucking me around big time on some bullshit and it's getting real tired, real quick.

 

nope, no digging for me. i came up on a big score, but it was all stuff to use. i've been too busy trying to actually be productive, paint's had to take a back seat for a bit. i'm sure spring will get me motivated again though.

to anyone buying shit off ebay or trading with "mr. verdes" (mr. clasico on here) do so at your own risk. i copped a can on ebay off him a month ago, paypaled the money, a week and a half later he tries raising the price (that i already payed, that he sent me a paypal invoice for), then he never sends the shit (after giving me the run around for weeks). a month goes by, he says he'll just refund my money, but i never got shit. i ask where it's at, and now he says he wont give me anything, that if i contact him again, he'll give me negative feedback. i hate putting business in the street, but i hate motherfuckers that sheisty even more. i know other cats have had no problem with him, but dude has been nothing but bullshit to me. deal with him at your own risk.

yeah man, first the crusades, then the killing fields in cambodia, then chernobyl, then the tusnami, and now this?!?!

 

naw, there are much worse injustices in the world, but i can't post on 12oz and end racism.

it's not a lot of money, but that's not the point. this is a small circle, jacking people is not acceptable.

^^^^^ Good point,but knocking the price up after the Ebay sale could get the seller in some serious bother with Ebay themselves.Anyhow,as i said a few pages back,try getting someone to send Rustos/Krylons to the UK! Bidded and won twice,and even though postage was worldwide,when it comes to delivering to the newest State of America,its refund time!!!! :(

ohhh fuck yeah that clover green shit is the fucking shit. my entire liking of said brand was based around finding a random can of that shit (light green i believe) at this dollar store that is notorious for shit cans 95% of the time. i did a few painting with the tins over the summer , shit was nice , aslthough its a pain dealing with dry times (i found a hair dryer on low heat solves this quandry.

 

seeks , that is fucked and the reason i dont buy shit on ebay ever.

euro,

wet paint (and wet look) aren't worth a whole lot of money, cause most people dont know shit about them. you could probably score a couple krylons off somebody in trade, but if you're just looking to sell, you wont get dick.

Hey Old Growth...long time no talk...You interested in making a trade to get back the Groovey? I just came up on one that is the cleanest Wet Look I have ever seen. Also got your Navy Grey scottie you were looking for....PM me... :king:

 

Ohh and by the way...Seeking for the record Seen and Lee don't collect paint, they just have shit from back in the days. Lee actually is getting rid of alot of it he made little displays for them and is selling them off...kinda pricey though I think they are like $700 he does have alot of old shit though and good colors..
