I'm at the stage of painting my mod. I am trying to decide on which paint to use! I want the paint to have the reflective specs "such as car paint" but I can't really find that kind of paint in a can. I'm looking for Red and Black, both with the reflective specs if possible. If not, that's cool.

I need to be able to order the paint online, and I'm just wanting to know what sites/brands you use!

I've looked at mod-wiki as well as TONS of other sites and still get no definite answer to which brand to pick from (that i can order online)

Thanks everyone!

All of the major brands , Rustoleum, Krylon, Duplicolor, etc. Have metallic paint, it has the sparkles your looking for. Most big-box home centers (think Lowes, Homedespot, etc) will carry them as will the box auto parts stores (think Advanced Auto, Auto zone, and the like).

The Red and black metallic should be eazy to find.

Mfg. Websites don't do a ggod job of showing the end results, but do sow color palette well.

Rustoleum metallic's (http://www.rustoleum.com/CBGProduct.asp?pid=30)

Duplicolor Metal Specks (http://www.duplicolor.com/products/metalspecks.html)


Ordering Spray paint on-line is hard because most states require the you prove your 18+yrs old, and Spray paint is a hazardous material and as such can't be shipped via air, and costs more to ship. Lots of places just don't want to deal with the headache.

This should get you headed in the right direction. If you need any more help, Just post we'll get you what you need!
