Better stuff out there

Alright so Im happy with the color of the finish, but the can will not do one rifle. I am refinishing a .308 enfield prepped, sandblasted and degrease. After the 2nd application to the parts the can started to spit and sputter. It was almost out of paint, I didnt go heavy on the coverage or use more than what was needed. Its curing as we speak biggest issue is not enough paint to do the amount of coverage I needed. I will most likely blast this garbage off and use brownells alumahyde II, at least with that a can will last a lot longer.

Air Brush Better

Don't like the sprayer it comes with. Air Brush is much better to control flow rate. Used the mat black , shiner that what I wanted. I normally use an air brush but decided to try it this way. I like DuraCoat just not the sprayer. Paper work says only 6-8 hours ad says 48 hours ? Maybe it would work better if you thinned it down like I do with the air brush.
