You mean Black Gold? I have been using that for a while. Great stuff. I just did a Majik Blue Pearl over a black base coat. Awesome!

 How about some pics of what you bought? I doubt seriously that HOK paints are for sale at Wal-Mart.

Re: house of kolor paints
It sounds to me like the 3 step flip flop paints that walmart sells. I have seen several diffrent brands that sell similar products in walmart, but not HOK. You never know though, you can't underestimate wal-mart.

Re: house of kolor paints
hmm. i am a 3 1/2 year veteran of wal mart. and i have seen some pretty strange things. i would love to see a picture of what you got. i'm with marc on this one. i dont see HOK being marketed at wal mart. it is just too expensive a paint. if you are talking about the mirage paint, that comes with the 3 step system. my store has had it for quite some time now. though pricey at around 20 bucks for the set. i'd rather pick up some HOK pre thinned paints from some of the various online sources

Yes im sure they have the Dupli-color Mirage Paint, in fact i know, ive been there. HOK? No.... look in the Automotive section at Wal-mart if you want the Dupli-Mirage. HOK is not and will not be sold at Wal-mart. No disrespect to HOK but Wally mart could never be that in tune with whats going on

 Just kiddin man. That sounds cool tho, if it is true. But I don't think walmart could handle that kind of quality. Frank X. Last edited by blubaja; 06-11-2005 at 05:55 PM.

Re: house of kolor paints
Like I said, never under estimate wal-mart. Did you not see the hour long special about the company. Their inventory tracking system's technology is rivaled only by the pentagon....or something like that. LOL

Re: house of kolor paints
what was the ratio of this HOK paint to duplicolor? wal mart operates on an automatic replenish system. unless manually ordered, stores do not receive any shipments of certain products until they sell down to a certain level. I have noticed in most of the stores in my area that there was ABSOLUTELY no duplicolor clear coat. i would immagine that parts of the duplicolor line will no longer be carried to make room for this paint. but as you notice the can says from the makers of HOK. so i would imagine that it is a modified formula of HOK and sold by valspar, or a subsidary. just my .02. i have experienced the workings of walmart internally for the last 3 1/2 years

Re: house of kolor paints
House of Kolor is an automotive paint that requires a certain reducer, primer, clearcoat, and certain prep work for it to come out well.
So what white97ex brought up is a very valid point. The can does say "From the makers" of House of Color. These paints are probably much more mild so they can be more universal and not require extensive knowledge of automotive paint.

Re: house of kolor paints
In my store they were way on the top of the shelf. They weren't really out yet either. This always happens in my WM. Anytime they have good stuff, it isn't out on the normal shevles. We have shitloads of duplicolor and the colorshift duplicolor tho.
