You will love it, I managed to pick up just one gallon and it was well worth the money. It is very forgiving in that where other paints may fisheye or shrink the GM stuff just lays down flat and sticks like glue.

Have you ever had any problems with it blushing(turning chalky)?That was my main problem with eastwoods under hood black.It always happened when it was raining or from the morning dew. :seeya

The 65 has seen no wet weather as of yet so I'm not sure what it's going to do. I did wash and scrub all of the black areas after the paint process was complete and did not notice anything unusual. I guess the true test will be how well it holds up, but for now I do like the sheen (not sure how “correct” it is) and it’s ease of use.

BTW sweet sig pic, is that elanor?
