 |
|
Does any one know of any places that sells Alpine White paint cheaper than $20 a can? Has anyone tried other paints that comes close to alpine white? I saw a bunch of stores selling GM Polar white & GM Olympic White (looked very close to alpine white, just didn't know if it was too much cream in color) I'm not sure if this has been talked about before, but from what I hear white paint is the easiest paint to match up, where red is much harder. I have a bunch of parts to be painted. Just thought I would asked before buying. If I am going to spend $100 on 5 cans, then I'll just take it to a painter and pay $100 more for him to do a professional job then me doing it myself, messing around for hours and still have it look bad.
Any help is appreciated, thanks

You're looking at spray bottles?

Yes, but they don't have to be, I can pay to have them put into spray cans. (maybe I should look into spray guns) I have a bunch of parts to be painted. I figured if I could find the color for a cheap price I could do it myself. If I messed up, all I would have to do is a light sanding and a respray.
Thanks Paul, I'll check them out.
