You guys wouldn't happen to have any secret tips for better results with a rattle can would you? Me and my buddy are painting his K5 flat black tomorrow, just want it to look as good as possible. Bot splotchy or anything. I'm pretty **** good with a can but always lookin to learn more!

Paint the color coats and then hit it with clear but don't buff it smooth. I think it would look sick.

Being the mud ****, we're just trying to make it look nice, but doesn't have to be perfect. My truck I'm gonna be as **** as possible on, while still being cheap at it.
I'll make sure to get pix up on here for you guys to look at our handy work. Maybe motivate you on the Bronco
Mine is still looking pretty decent, but I don't want to let the rust go any longer or else I'll have some issues. Just wish I could find this color to DIY, and not have a shop do it for a couple more years

The stuff you buy off the shelf at an auto parts store will not work. No matter what they say. I used it on a few Bronco pieces and they yellowed in a very short time and ate still yellowing to this day. This is a problem with rattle can clears. The formula to put it in a can causes this. It should be a catalyzed clear coat and that's not possible in an off the shelf clear. Do not waste your time.
I spent the money and had Ketone mix up a catalyzed clear coat. It had a button on the bottom of the can you would push and that would release the hardener into the can and I would mix it and spray it. The stuff was $30 a can and it worked. But that's $30 a can. Not something you wanna do a whole truck in.
