Its Octoral, now I can see how you can do it that cheap, well your honest about what your using and that's the main thing.
I wouldn't use this stuff but that's me.

Mick Used glasuit,aw, ici, imont back in the day, all good product, but , things have moved on, the cheap end of the paint market has caught up to a certain level, a good worker doesn't blame his tools!! As stated, have been painting since 1975, I paint show car's and classics worth a lot of money, I kind of know what I'm talking about, if you can't get on with octoral jog on and try something else maybe.............

Putting jog on is a bit rude
Glasurit is far better than Octoral and if anybody doubts that then more fool them
Glasurit is a market leader simples!!!
Name me one premium brand vehicle that is painted in Octoral from factory

I was not doubting your painting skills or experience, I was however stating that Octoral & Prospray are cheap paints.
