Unhappy paint help!!!

i need help.....i want to know if any one knows about the body spray paint cans they sell a Kragen's auto parts---- are any good or what...if ya use the same color and clear coat....would it match...(front-quarter panel is a different shade from an accident) it's an old car not so glossy paint

I want to know if any has tried it or has heard about people who've tried it. If ya know.. you can help me decide if i should experiment with it.

Only use Dupli-Color. It is the closest thing to genuine auto paint. Buy the color you want, then color sand and apply a few layers of Dupli-Color clear coat. Buff the surface to a smooth beautiful shine, then wax it.

Amazing results can come from a can I remember painting a whole 70' station wagon blue once... one panel at a time and waiting for that panel to dry(overnight) ,then mask it off to protect it from overspray while doing the next panels and move to the next panel etc... At the end of the paint job the whole car ended up covered but each panel was clean. It was a lot of fun:smoker2: having a clean area to do it in is key.
