Automotive spray paint
Besides lordco, anyone know any places that will make paint and put it in an aerosol spray can for a lower price then lordco? Called them and its about 40 a can.

Nice to hear it worked out. I painted the air dam on my car myself with paint from Concept Finishes and it turned out pretty well. Paint match wasn't exact but close enough.
It was ~$25 a can right?

Can Lordo put them in cans with this tip?
These fine mist tips are a lot easier to use and better finish.
Need to paint a front bumper lip, one can should be enough?

Sonick is correct. Concept finish is the one I was thinking of. I think the paint is call PGM.
They will match to automotive code, and have option of hardeners mixed it. Good for bumper skirts. My lip has held up well over many years of stone chips and abuse with hardener. Be sure to prep the surface and primer it.
