Reviews : Testors Spray Silver Metallic 3 oz

I spent considerable time searching among several brands for a good match to a glossy silver metallic paint to match an historic stock car. When I found Testors Spray Silver Metallic, the online chip or example appeared to be near perfect. Unfortunately and despite shaking the can three times longer than indicated on the directions in an effort to get the full metallic effect, the paint dried as a dull silver with a somewhat rough surface -- even after three coats over a grey primer. As another user indicated, I hope I can get more gloss out of the finish with the application of a clear coat; however, the example given clearly shows a gloss reflection on the surface and does not lead one to believe it is a semi-gloss, matte or flat type paint.

This has a strange look to it when finished. It sprays easy. i finished a car with it. Applied clear and was done. Looking at the car it almost looks like the paint is gritty, but its not. It is smooth as glass. First paint that i have found to be this way. Does give a cool effect though.

Unfortunately I had the same result as Michael (above). A call to Testors (who are refunding my purchase) resulted in them telling me this product does not finish with a high gloss (!?!?) and they do not recommend overspraying with a gloss product. Hmmm.

This paint is great. I painted 4 model airplanes and it really shines. It covers well and doesn't require a heavy coat. It is a good value for what you get, a 3oz spray can. I recommend it for all modelers.

Had to repair several areas and the old paint stripped and blended. Coverage was good and even. Delivery was timely for the project. I'm re-ordering for another project requiring silver spray.

I've used Testors/Model Master spray paints for years! Hasn't let me down yet! Covers easily and smoothly. Even spray right down to empty!

purchased for $9.29 39 days ago Now priced at $24.79 a can ! WOW I understand price increases but this is crazy.

Testors manufactures a good quality paint. It is a good value for the money.

Love spray( rattle) cans, a little patience goes along way.
