Trunk Splatter Mess

Purchased 3 cans of trunk splatter paint from Eatwood and I have created a mess. The paint cans spew out wet,wet,wet and the spray nozzles froths and blobs and drips all over. Anyone else have this problem. Any tips tricks to it?

Gotta go now and watch our girls play hockey...

Thanks,
Randy

Have not had this problem, make sure cans are shaken well and keep all drips inside the trunk. Stuff looks better when it dries...

Sounds like the cans may have gotten too cold at one point....

Thanks, you may be right about the cold but I doubt they ever froze.

Hope you enjoy your silver medal...

If it's not real warm paint out of fu-fu cans doesn't work well, you need to be as close to at least 70 degrees as you can get and you have to reshake the can periodically during the application.

Thanks Jag. The other 2 cans worked well so I guess ya takes your chances with this stuff. Not sure what type of clear coat to put over this stuff if it ever dries. Don't really want to use the Eatwood stuff.

ENT72OLDS, guess you don't know Canadian women! Their GOLDEN! Have to say your American girls played one hell of a game and deserved every bit of that silver. We got very lucky (gotta be good to be luck too). I'd wish ya good luck on the men's tomorrow, but I just can't

The tears in the eyes of the recipients of wrong colored medal will answer your question sir.


Epic comeback by our girls that was almost snuffed out by an useless official. What was that linesman thinking?


Tune in tomorrow for the men's. Naturally I want team Canada to win but I think these teams are very closely matched. Should be a great game.
