Navy Blue Mettalic Spary Paint?
Does anyone know of any spray paint that matches a Navy Blue Mettalic Car. I want to paint my Valve Covers, Throttle body, and MAF ends. What kind of paint do I have to use?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I remember I was trying to pick up some Sunset Orange Metallic for a friend in a spray can. Think there is a problem with real metallics in a can, clogs the nossle.

you can get 5oz spray cans of touch up paint from GM. They are pricey..something like 8 bucks a can but works very well. Its very "wet" heavy paint and the can must be nice and warm or it'll come out funky but its very nice looking when it dries.
I've gotten them a few times for friends with my discount at the dealer so its like 5 bucks a can..just expensive because a 5oz can doesn't last long

i don't think that gm touch up will work in real high temp applications, afterall it is just touch up paint. i've used it to do an intake manifold before for a vette, but i laid down 500 degree primer first and then 500 degree clearcoat on top of it to keep the heat away from it. does look very nice though here is that intake i did, sanded primed painted and clearcoated

Cannibal,
I've painted **** like gas doors, rocker panels, blended door bottoms etc, the stuff is durable as hell, Id do both doors so they look consistent,Id sand the parts, putty heavy scratches, sand with 320 wet, use the dupli color "self etch" primer or "sealer/filler primer, sand again and shoot, you can get the dupli clear coat as well, than color sand and buff it...
pretty good ****..
