I am having trouble finding the Krylon Silver Satin paint that Ron mentions in his chassis repaint thread. I found an item at my local Ace Hardware called just metallic and the number on the can is 1403, but it is dull aluminum. I tried some and it definitely is not the right kind. I have some Krylon Brilliant Silver no. 51511 which I have not tried yet. The can has a very shiny chrome looking cap on it and I hope it is not that shiny. I looked on Krylon's website and I do not see a product under their metallic paints that is described as Silver Satin type. Can anyone provide a Krylon number? It is usually on the back of the can near the bottom.

Thanks in advance.

Joe

Just to make sure, you chose either 4 ohm into 5K or into 10K? (blk-org or blk-grn)morzh — 06:23 PM
