I absolutely love this color. I recommend that it be stirred frequently during painting process , it tends to separate kinda fast.

I used this blue several years ago on a set of motorcycle race farings because it was cheap & readily available. Well I did not expect much, but really fell in love with the brilliance of the color in the Florida sunshine... Fast forward to 2025, and I decided to spruce up my wife's Ninja 250 that had seen better days. This stuff covers very well & the HVLP gun I got from here works wonders on saving paint..Only needed 2 slightly wet coats to cover the dark gray Rust oleum rattle can primer filler. Be sure to take your time prepping & smoothing the surface & you will not be disappointed.Bonus points, if you are refreshing something for the wife, since there is no mixing involved spraying takes less effort/time, and it looks amazing.

WARNING, This advertised Candy Apple Red paint is FALSE. The image on the can of paint shows a depth of red that someone would consider it to be a candy paint. The instructions on the can is self stats that there is no thinning required and you will get the desired look of this product. Candy paints are translucent paint meaning you can see through it to the base coat of silver metallic, which is also advertised on this product as a system.Start of use of this "system"Started with primer layer which laid down good, no issues.Started laying down 3 coats of silver metallic basecoat, layed down good, no tiger stripping, no issues.Started laying down there "Candy Apple Red"First thin layer completely covered the metallic base coat and no metallic could be seen through this paint.The paint as is, is about 5% transparent. This product is being falsely advertised as Candy Apple Red, even the image on that can shows a color which is not capable of producing which is also false advertising.Tho the price point is low, you will be completely disappointed with this product and you will have wasted time and money.I'm writing this long review because even tho somehow this product is got 4 stars and I don't think its based on honest reviews and I dont want others to fall for this trap as I did.

Not bad. when you first spray it on its almost matt ( spary about 4 coats). Dont freak out! You have to sand with 1500 grit wet sand then buff with buffing compound and it comes out realllly glossy. Just a lot of work to get that glossy finish!

Guys,I've been looking forward to reviewing this. Let me start by saying I'm a complete amateur. Never painted before. First, I used around 6 quarts to paint a fourth gen Nova. I used this much because I had to do a complete color change, door jams, under hood, trunk, etc. There is a lot more to paint that way. I practiced on the under side of the hood and trunk. Basically, it took me about 8 weeks of weekends and one or two nights during the weeks to finish my project. I had a lot of body work to do, so the time it took me was pretty long because of the body work, my day job, and the fact that it was my first time painting. The second time will be easier, but make sure you block out a LOT of time and like they say, TAKE YOUR TIME.As far as the paint goes, I knew from the reviews that lacquer isn't the best option for durability. For me, the car will be in a garage, so it's less of a concern. The paint was fine, it looks GREAT, and it was easy to work with. It was almost impossible as an amateur to get the technique right... so for me, it was important to have an easy to use paint for my first time. If I had tried to use a premium urethane, I think it would look horrible, and I would have wasted a lot of money. All in, I think it cost around $400 by the time I factor in primer, paper, masks, tapes, plastic (hanging up in the garage, and for the car itself), propane to keep the garage warm, fans... basically everything I spent to make it work. The last subject will be the paint fumes. It was a challenge to deal with the vapor as my garage is attached to my house. If your lady is queasy about smelling paint, or if you have kids... you may want to make sure you can do the spraying times when they won't be around for the day. Lastly, I had some inevitable problems with the gun getting clogged and shooting drops onto the paint job. This just seemed to happen at random times no matter how careful I was. I'd disassemble and clean the gun, and it would shoot drops onto the paint randomly. I think that part of learning is being ready to see or hear when the gun is starting to clog and stopping before you shoot drops onto your paint job. All together, I really like the results, but there were predictable challenges and mistakes. Even though the paint job isn't perfect, I did it myself, and the mistakes are mine. It was an awesome learning process that makes me respect professional painters even more. I think this is a great product for your first paint job. Good luck guys!
