Last night I had the opportunity to use a new paint from a new distributor. Valspar Automotive paint. To give a quick summary, I have shot Dupont, Nason, & PPG. I really adore Dupont because of the color matching ease, however, with budget/econo jobs, going cheaper on the paint is necessary to make a profit. Normally, nason would be my choice of econo paint, however, a new player has come to the table.
Valspar Paint is, so far, awesome. I opened up the pint can I got from A-line and I immediately noticed the difference in color, thickness and quality. I reduced it 75 percent than what it asked and shot the paint. Before I continue, let me add that it was a silver metallic.
The paint shot clean, color looked great both on the test panel and bumper and needed 3 coats to cover primer spots vs nason where i used several more coats.
So far, Valspar shows a great promise in budget/econo paint. I'm going to buy again today for this black Hyundai Forte I just got in, I will post an update soon...
