R34_T88_Widebody Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hi everyone, If you have a need or a want for custom colour paint for a project ( well, I suppose you could spray your dog, but I wouldn't recommend this), I have 8 4litre tins of Dupont Metallic Acrylic. The paint is called 'Dupont 600' and retails around $150 per litre, so a 4ltr tin is worth roughly $600. I have the following colours; Ford Acid Jazz ( yellowish gold colour) Holden Tiger Mica Montego Blue Mint Green and 2 other shades of blue, and 2 in red. For more details please call Mick on 0400 4300 51. I'm happy to do any of these colors for $400. Or the lot for $2800. In case you are wondering how I came to have this, I agreed to swap a set of Works Equips 11J and 13J with new Bridgestone 275 and 295 tyres for this paint. Somehow I think I was duped. Or maybe I was duponted. Anyway, BUY MY STUFF OR THE OLD GEEZER GETS IT!

RomkaR31 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hey buddy can you get any other colours? and also at a cheaper price? 4 litres of that dupont high coverage (600) stuff is $450 over the phone price... If you can get other colours at a price of around $80-$90 a litre I'd be interested Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95950-paint-paint-glorious-paint/#findComment-1737943 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So whilst I chase up the orange, what's say you post those contact details for all SAU members to utilise should they wish? Once you've done that, let's take this to PM.... Is this for your respraying your smashed 32 GTST? or did you sell that?

SirSkyline Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 $425 is trade price on those colours not 600 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95950-paint-paint-glorious-paint/#findComment-1743080 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R34_T88_Widebody Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 $425 is trade price on those colours not 600 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Guys, We seem to be having communications problems here.... I did not state 'trade price', I stated 'retail price'. There is and should be a difference. Still, if trade is $425, and I'm selling at $400 obo, that would suggest it's below trade price, right? So you're point is? As I am sticking by my original quote on 'retail' price, and we now have a posted 'trade' price, may I ask other members to ensure that future posts are of relevance? SirSkyline - thanks for the pricing, and I do appreciate this as it helps to give more clarity for other members, but please don't suggest that I was stating trade prices when I wasn't. Irrespective, my prices still look cheaper.... Now, for someone actually genuinely enquiring about the product, would be happy to hear from you...........

Majanal Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 How much coverage would you get from 4 ltrs? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95950-paint-paint-glorious-paint/#findComment-1745244 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R34_T88_Widebody Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 How much coverage would you get from 4 ltrs? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi Dan, I spoke with guy who painted my GTR ( which also helps to show one of the colors, this is the green, although it's also had a pearl run through it), and he said that 9 times out of 10 a 4ltr tin will be sufficient to get an R33 done. He used 3.5ltrs in doing my car ( note: basically overspraying everywhere but NOT engine bay) which was grey to green, and 2.5 ltrs on his own car ( also shown in the photo), which was blue to purple. He recommended using a cheap base coat, then this metallic acryllic over the top, then applying the 2-pac clear. Not sure if this helps, get back to me if further detail needed. cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95950-paint-paint-glorious-paint/#findComment-1745827 Share on other sites More sharing options...
