I use their spray paints all the time. Best rattle can I have ever used. They are mot cheap, but they work well. I have not used their base coat paints.

If you are talking about their actual paint line, they are repackaged Sherwin Williams Automotive products. If you are asking about their spray paints, sorry, can't help you there.

Most of the Eastwood rattle can paints are private label packaging of Seymour of Sycamore paints. You can tell by the Seymour product code ink stamped on the bottom of the can.
Seymour was the inventor of spray can paint (every "tagger" should send a thank you card) and produce a very high quality product. They do specialized colors like "stainless steel" and a big line of MRO paints. I was a Seymour dealer when I had my restoration shop and we used a lot of the stainless steel for replicating bare metal as well as the "Aluma-blast" for alloy and the "1200 degree cast-blast" for exhaust manifolds. They produce a good selection of engine paints that are properly matched to the original colors. We had some custom colors packaged that we wholesaled to retailers like "Ford yellow" as used on 50's truck engines, 59-60 Thunderbird 352 valve covers, etc.
One of Seymour's unique features is the agitator in the can is not a round ball but rather a concave, disc shaped steel piece. The shape allow the agitator to get into the edges of the can bottom and release the congealed pigments to mix into the carrier media.

I have only used their rattle can paints but was pleased with them and the way they stand up.

I have had a quart each of the high temp ceramic engine paint and the 2K ceramic chassis black urethane paints with the hardener for a few years. I have sprayed and brushed both, and I'm very happy with each of them. Everything that I have painted with each looks as good today as they did when they were first painted.

Bill I am just wondering where you got this Info? All the paint forums say its repackaged Kirker . Any chance Kirker is owned by Sherwin Williams?
