Halfords Rattle Cans

Halfords do the graphite grey MOTW code

 

is it a good match and has anyone used this from the halfrauds?

Can't say for the pre done cans, i needed some in a hurry recently and Sod's law they had no cans of graphite on stock, so they mixed me a custom fill aerosol there and then. Expensive on the face of it but far superior coverage and spray fan meaning I would probably have needed two cans off the shelf to do what this 1 can achieved (painted a black front valance graphite). Colour match seemed reasonable BUT I wasn't trying to blend a panel so hard to really say. However I will add that I have never found aerosol lacquer to be any good so I did knock up a bit of 2 pack lacquer for the gun and lacquered it with proper gear.

That's what I'm doing is the front valance so if a little off key it won't be seen

How many layers of paint do you usually need to apply?
