    I glass beaded my radio housing for my 69.5 yesterday and gave it a coat of good self etching primer in a spray can I bought from Eastwood. Now I want to paint it black. I don't want to be using some cheap spray can paint that never hardens, scuffs easily or looses it's gloss in a week. I never had any real good results from Walmart or Krylon in the past.

    What is a good paint in spray cans that will give me the best, longest lasting durable finish?


    Thanks:tiphat:

    SEM makes the best spray paint I have ever used, next to them is Seymour, also awesome stuff. No usually sold anyware but a good auto parts store, Seymour can ba purchased online. http://www.seymourpaint.com/
    Sem's web page. http://www.sem.ws/
    I get my SEM at Car Quest, I think their an American chain.

    Thanks Dave. I don't have any Car Quest stores close by that I know of. I did find a place 9 miles from me that sells SEM though. It is an automotive paint store and I'm not sure if they sell to the public or not. I'll have to stop in and ask. (y)
