#196145 aerosol is a lacquer paint, or sometimes an enamel which is a little tougher than the lacquer. But both are a fraction of the harness of urethane, which is what a professional paint job would be. OEM paint jobs are urethane as well.
So it will be more prone to chipping than a professional urethane paint job.

If you do your prep work correctly on any paint job, then it will not peal.

#227601 Hey stumbled on this so I can't find info on the Danvern nozzle you were talking about the link doesnt work. Is that a nozzle you buy and you put it on the can you are going to use or is that a duplicolor paint standard nozzle? I found that duplicolor paint has EZ Touch fan spray nozzles same or different? thanks

#227632 Some of the Dupli-Color cans come with it, it is the blue nozzle. I've seen some red ones too.

The white nozzles are the old fashioned nozzles, from what I have seen.

You can get them at automotive parts stores like Autozone, Advance, NAPA etc. or buy them on ebay/amazon. :thumb:
