If you're painting a cab red use dark primer, not white. I didn't learn about that until after it took 10 coats to get the color even. I've read that black paint mixed at the store won't be as dark as special order black paint. I've only used the mixed stuff and am satisfied with it. It was either semi-gloss or satin, don't recall which. Had both the Neo Geo red and black mixed at Lowes. |

I thin it with acetone or laquer thinner and spray it with a hvlp gun. Lays down great and provides a durable oem looking finish. Available at home depot, lowes or osh. I also use this paint for the backside of the bezel. --- End quote --- This. Rustoleum black satin. Great finish. |

I read somewhere this is a really good paint to go with. I am about to paint my cab and I was going to start with this to see how it looks. Any thoughts compared to the satin? http://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Painter-s-Touch-32-oz-Semi-Gloss-Black-General-Purpose-Paint-1974502/100208855 |
