Paint question ???

Post by kaptnkaos »

Hey Guys...

Can anyone recommend a comperable paint to Rustolium???
They have discontinued the "Harbor Blue" paint I used on the interior of Olde Skool.
I was planning to paint my '68 CS, Olde Skool, and the bump trailer all Rustolium Harbor Blue now, I can't get it.

Hey Vinne...

Over the past few months, I have been to every hardware and paint store in a 30 mile radius...
That's why I contacted Rustoleum customer service...
I was looking for a suppiler that I could order it from...
Rustoleum discontinued the color.
They said they could make me batch of 12 gals minimum or 2000 rattle cans...
I can get rattle cans of it at Wal*Mart for about $4.00 and no shipping...
That's why I was hoping that someone could recommend an emamel paint that would equal Rustoleum's quality.
I want to do a roller paint job on my trailer first and if that goes ok do one on the '68 CS before I tackle the bus...

Can't think of anything matching Rustoleum.
So good luck man.
