IRON CHEF 450 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 KRYLON TEAL BLUE WAS SUCH A GOOD COVER WAY BACK WHEN. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
infamousscribbler 38 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Night Tide, that's the one. I have a good amount of them still and they're fantastic, with a ny skinny on em you can cut pieces cleaner than with molotow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HAL 49 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I think out of most colors, blues have some of the best coverage, well all blues except the navy/dark blues. Must be something with the amount of pigment needed to make it thick and opaque I think it's a combination of some pigments being more opaque than others, and the base they have to start with. I don't know if it's the same as bucket paint, where the dark tint bases are basically clear, and the light bases are already pigmented with white, so coverage on dark colors is always going to be weaker than a midtone or pastel base. Even with tubed oil paints, which are essentially a linseed oil base mixed with straight pigment, yellows, dark blues and greens don't have a one coat coverage. It's just weaker pigments. Mix some white into them, and coverage increases dramatically. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
injury 780 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Night Tide is ALREADY gone??? Fuck man. But that new green they just put out (like a clover-ish green) is dope. Dark blues are very hit or miss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HAL 49 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Up here in Denver, I got a few cases worth of Amber, but the Night Tide was priced only like $1 less than normal price, so I wasn't gonna pop on that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
varivaldi 26 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Yeah Amber and some Rusto satin red I can't recall name of went discount too. Now a closeout spot is carrying Rusto: Glacier Blue, Pistachio and AA: Light Sage and PT: Light Sage, Colonial Red and Espresso.... $3.00 a can but what canyado Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigmack 13 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 a couple of those colors i bough as well. but not as good of a deal. last time that place had rustos and stuff they were only $2. the satin ambers were i think $1.24 and the night tides were $1.09 in my area. i bought all i could find at that price. went to probably 15 or more diff stores in a 30 mile radius Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alloverthetown 45 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I just came off on a super going out of business dig from a place that has been around since the 50's. I got a good amount of aerosol cans, but mostly tins of all sizes of 50's and 60's paints, it was a take it all, or take nothing deal. I literally am going through it all still in my garage. Got a bunch of other shit I never heard of in my life.. I'll post flicks when I can. Came off with some sick 50's rustos... Some Wet looks, One Shots, Derusto's, various companies I never heard of etc. Anybody got any information on the paint company Adelphi? I have a good 30 tins of it, can't find any information anywhere about this company, sick paper labels for days! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

privateer 1 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 As far as AA and PT goes, what colors do you use and are there any hard to find colors for each brand? I like indian spice, autumn gold, rasberry, summer squash, wildflower blue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hustleman 14 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 from my interaction with people- indian spice seems to be the most sought after aa color. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
imported_joewelcome 6 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 there are many colors from the 1991 initial American Accents line that were discontinued, such as the Classic colors and the silver and gold. Java Brown is one that doesn't pop up much, and some of the early gloss colors are obscure--- it's hard to find their gloss Black in 1991 cans. Indian Spice, Autumn Gold, Maple Sugar, Leafy Green, and others are all classics from the early years, often remembered for their very high quality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Slyle CMC 25 Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Java Bean? Java Brown is almost impossible to find, and the back was that charcoal or canyon black? I think any of the cans in the 91 style are pretty hard to find these days.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
