Paint query

Post by poplars »

I want to do my wheels, but also want some paint to touch up a few areas with a brush.... would this be ok to use with a brush?? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261360057984?var=560262022915 Im not thinking of painting the whole car, but want the right colour black if Im touch up a few areas.

Black isn't just black.There are many variants and you have no idea unless its original paint what colour it actually is.For brush touching a litre is a hell of a lot!!!If you want a litre this is better quality paint at half that price

The link you posted states only suitable for use in a spray gun? The car I have has had a respray at some point - so to be safe I thought it best to go for the Morris black as opposed to just any black - because as you say there are lots of blacks.

That seller will mix you the colour you want.Ask for a quarter of a litre which will last you forever touching in chips.Its the same stuff for spraying and brushing.Its thick enough to brush.If you want it thicker put a small amount in a small container and leave it an hour or so.It will thicken as its solvent evaporates.
