    Duplicolor Auto touch-up spray paint

    Does anyone know where i can find this stuff? I am looking to repaint the lower unit on my hammer and have heard that GM505 is about as good as match as you can get..I can only find the touchup pens and can not find the spray cans...anyone know where i can order some from? also, anyone ever done this? i thought i would use there "etching primer" then the GM505 (met blue) and then their clear coat...
    Do i need to sand it all the way down to bare metal or just rough it up then primer it?
    Thanks

    O'Reilly can get it for you. I did this to mine a couple of weeks ago. I just roughed mine up a little, then used the etching primer, I put two coats of 505 on, then a coat of clear. It looks a lot better than it did before.

    google color rite its an exact match. If you end up priming it be prepared to paint right after the flash time..

    Desotorad, how is this working out for you? Did it hold up well? What etching primer and clear coat did you use?

    Anyone else try this?
