having previously cut and made some stencil artwork using halfords carpaint,i always found the results very disappointing.Frankly the paint lacks lustre.Graff artists usually swear by Krylon,although i dont think its available in this country,Belton however is, and its of the highest quality, and comes in 251 different colours.Also, you can buy a selection of different cap sizes to get a finer spray (or thicker if you wish).useful for spraying areas where tubes butt into one another and you need more control and dont want such a thick coat.Changing caps between coats is probably a good idea too,to prevent blocking and uneven spray caused by dried paint in the cap.
I say all this without having sprayed a frame before,but im stripping one now and hope to commence spraying within about a week.I will be using Belton.i will let you know the results ;)
