Hi Mowerfreak
I was quoted a freight charge of something like $20.00 but had to order a box as they wouldent ship cans in a lose box (fair enough) I decided to drive there cause I dident want to spend $80.00 on paint and freight when I thought I only needed $20.00 worth plus there were other things I wanted to do out that way and thought I could get what I needed for the coast of just the freight charge. Obviously had to drive back there again cause the 4 cans dident get verry far and they said if I returned the 4 faulty cans they would supply me a box of 12 for my troubles plus I had to finish my mower as I was half way through it. If they were closer I would be going there all the time as they have plenty of other paints such as cold gal etc and their prices are cheap even if you only get half a can out of it.
Funny thing is we still want this paint even though we know the cans are duds. Maybe if UltraColor stumble across these posts they may realise that people may want this colour more now than when they were supplying it years ago before the lawnmower craze. I don't want to bag the company their paint is excellent hence why we want to go back for more, just a shame their not making new batches due to poor sales and over stock of the old batch.
If this paint had the thumbs up I reckon most SB restorers would be using it as their is no off the shelf green hammer in a spray can that is close enough to the Avocado green unless colour matching which means mucking around with compressors thinners and the clean up, that's if you have the skills and setup.
Cheers.
