I used this paint to paint a headstock on a Fender Candy Apple Red P-Bass to match the body. I sanded the headstock and wiped it down with a tack cloth and then took my time masking off the headstock. Then I sprayed the headstock with some Stew Mac white vinyl sealer as an underlay to make the paint pop. When that was dry I used three coats of this Spaz Stix Candy Apple Red until I thought I had a match in color and depth to the color on the Bass guitar body I was trying to match. Then I gave that three coats of Spay Max 2K clear coat. The paint went on smoothly and the color match was dead on. There are clear prep directions on this can of paint. Before I use any spray rattle can paint I always take the time to do the prep and heat up the can in a plastic bag sitting in a sink of hot tap water for about ten minutes to get the consistency of the spray to flow better. I have not had that method fail along with shaking these cans until your arms are tired and then shaking them some more. That is really important. This paint does seem to take a bit longer to dry than some other paints. I've found that when using Spaz Stix which I have done several times it's better to do more light coats until you achieve color than fewer heavy coats. The paint pops more also. I don't go by how long in between coats that it says on the can. You really have to look at this paint in the right light to know when it has flashed off. I'd say another ten minutes more than they say on the can. If you want any paint job to last you have to clear coat otherwise you can't cry about paint chipping off when you bump into things with your new paint job. I clear coat and will not touch it for four days afterwards with Spaz Stix. Prep patience and clear coat. Gets the job done every time. I used this paint for a purpose which it was not intended and achieved great results. Bottom line if you have an idea as to what you want to do make sure you read instructions and take the time to learn.Spaz Stix has worked on this project and several pickguard paint jobs I've done and flawlessly so!Read full review

Complete crap. This is not rc car paint for lexan bodies. The first time I drove my car and slightly bumped into the curb, the paint completely cracked off. Not just a little bit but the entire side. I'm so pissed off, not that I wasted the money on it but I completely ruined a $50 body. This is not intended for rc cars as it says
