I've been doing DIY projects for 50 years and spray painting was always my last resort for painting furniture, toys, etc. The finish was never smooth and took so long to dry that bugs, dust and debris was always embedded by the time it was dry enough to handle. Not anymore!! Follow the directions for prepping the surface and for ambient temperature, humidity and wind speed, and watch a smooth, professional finish develop before your eyes. My husband works for a major manufacturer of automotive finishing products and even he was amazed. I've used more than a dozen cans of this paint in various finishes [glossy, metallic, satin, etc] over the past year, painting everything from brass cranes to wooden tables and have only had one failure. Obviously the nozzle was bad and the paint spit in large globs and droplets all over me, the floor and the frame I was painting. Recommend you do a test spray over lawn or covered surface before aiming at the object to be painted. [The store gave me a full refund for the messy can I returned.]. Other than that one negative event, everything I've painted has had a smooth, factory finish at the end, with the gloss level accurate and durability great. In addition, it comes in a wide variety of colors, so I'm able to match even unusual shades of colors used in a room. Highly recommended!!
This is an outstanding spray paint in a can that can allow you to achieve a very controllable spray grade finish that is as good as anything you can achieve with 'spray' capability including rivaling professional spray guns. I achieve 'glass-like', factory finish with this paint which is why I want to share some insights. There has been some critical reviews of this paint that I believe are the result of the fact that the best method of application for this spray paint is a little different from Rustoleum spray paints for example (other products people are first used to). My experience with the Rustoleum products is that they go on heavier, and as an oil/enamel take a typically, very long time to dry (my experience is overnight). The heavier coat per application makes it harder to control the 'layered' spraying that achieves even coverage and glass like finishes. The ColorMaster goes on very thin but dries almost immediately allowing many subsequent coats in rapid succession (5, 10 minutes between the coats). If you try to achieve complete coverage too quickly it may run. Furthermore (my experience is with Satin white), the first or second coats hardly begin to turn the sprayed object to 'color'. Stay patient because you will see why this is an asset and not a hindrance when you get to the final finish! Recognize that after several applications, easily achieved with the fast drying nature of this paint, the color buildup will occur. Because the paint allows you to apply thin layers, you can achieve an even, very smooth finish and it is dry to touch in an hour! When objects are sprayed dust or dirt circulating in the air will stick to the surface between coats (unless you are lucky enough to spray in a 'clean room'). Also, you may think you prepared the surface for paint, but when the paint is applied certain imperfections that were not visible may now show up - this is just a fact of prepping and painting. With a Rustoleum product you have to wait until the next day to lightly sand it out! With the Colormaster, I can lightly wipe off any dust that sticks between coats because it dries to touch (this may be a 20 minute between coat application). I can also sand with say 400 or 600 grit between coats the same day (in an hour or so). Several coats of ColorMaster, say 4-5, a light sanding of 600 grit even with an orbital, and 2-3 final coats and I have glass - even on wood! Again, I cant do this with the Rustoleum - because its not even dry yet. Bottom line: the fast drying capability of Colormaster not only is an asset if you want to handle the work piece the same day - this fast dry capability allows you to tend to the surface between coats within minutes. Overall, I find the colors brighter and more appealing, and ultimate surface smoother, than any other brand. Note: always shake the can thoroughly and start the spraying on cardboard or a test object to make sure the paint is spraying smooth and not spitting. I find that the Colormaster has a short shelf life and if it sits too long 3-6 months an occasional can will 'spit' (i.e.; not spray smoothly).
I feel like the other reviewers here do not know how to use spray paint. It requires light coats! I love their products and it has the closest color to tiffany blue. This stuff works great. If you do go heavy on the application you will get orange peel. Take your time and watch some videos. If you take your time it will turn out great
After using Rustoleum and experiencing bad results, I decided to give Krylon a try. BEST DECISION EVER. The nozzle sprays evenly and just the right amount so I never experienced any run or drip, and I didn't have to worry if I was spraying too close. Sprayed 1 tacky coat, then 2 wet coats 10 minutes apart, and let it dry for two days. Then sanded with 600 and I never had any issues with the next layers, in fact the newer coats ended up even nicer. After I sprayed my color, although it was suggested not to, I applied Clear Gloss on top of it the same way, about 10-12 coats (3 per day), and let it dry for a week after the final spray. Then I sanded with 1000, 1500, 2000 and 2500 grit and then hand buffed and polished. I never thought I could have this finish quality without a spray booth or spray guns. Patience is the key. Also read weather and humidity conditions before you spray, it seriously can affect your project.
I just painted a pinewood derby car for my daughter, and put on the first coat, waited close to 30 hours, and knocked off the gloss with some 1500 sand paper, and upon recoat, the whole car turned into a crinkly mess. Now I have less than a week to completely strip the car and start over before the race.
I purchased this to recolor some light switch plates. Says it works on plastic. I spend time to prep, making sure the plates were clean with no oil residue. I planned on several light sprays to keep it from running. Nope, no matter what I did it ran. The paint is like water, and doesn't stick to anything. I tried some other material to see if I was doing it wrong, but nope.... all ran.
I use to love this product and used it all the time. It was much better before you put the paint and primer together AND the sprayer that was used on the old can of Colormaster was MUCH better. It took 5 cans of this garbage to spray one small file cabinet and there are still stripes. Worried that it was my technique (although I've done it many times), I had my brother spray the 2nd file cabinet and he had the same results. I have sprayed entire benches with 1 can and some left over with the old Colormaster and it always looked great! Why the change? PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK!! Change is only good if it is an improvement, and this new Colormaster is pure garbage.
Used this product to paint photo frames made of different materials. I made sure to shake the can and follow the directions but it was splotchy and runny. Had to sand drips even with a light application. Not satisfied with the finished product at all. I will have to redo everything and I see others had the same issues.
It worked on a small test sample of plastic but was a disaster on the actual model sailboat hull. As much as I hated Krylon Fusion, Colormaster is even worse. It runs, takes many, many, many, many ... coats. It lays down inconsistently with some smooth patches but mostly orange peel. Read the other reviews (wish I had) and do not use this junk. It should be taken off the market!
Used the gloss gumdrom followed by the gloss clearcoat. Was painting a basswood guitar body & this paint is absolutely worthless. Took months to dry but never did dry, paint melted n peeled off at room temprature. had to sand down to wood & respray multiple times. Directions on can are wildly inaccurate as krylons own "tech support" said to leave each coat 5 days between additional coats at which point it still wasn't dry a mere touch would leave fingerprints. laying it on a surface would leave deep gouges even on a completely smooth surface.
