It was posted a while ago that some Wal Marts had HOK in rattle cans.I want to find it for customizing die cast cars.
I looked but could never find it either. Ask on this message board, they talked about it a bunch.... http://wwwboard.modelcarkits.com/
I posted it a while back -but since have noticed the stores do not all handle it .....I ran out in the middle of a tankpanel and had a little trouble getting the silver base I was using. I since have bought it in a regular QUART off ebay from a place in California. It was kinda reasonable- $38- $49 a QT. OR you can Try HOK's site - they sell it direct to consumer- WWW.HOKPAINT.COM/
It's pretty hit or miss. The town north of me carries it, the town south of me(with the bigger wal-mart) doesn't.
I have seen it in the model section. I found the color selection weak. They also sell a package of like eight ***orted HOK paints. The best part was my girl found a color she liked, which got her working on her first model car.
Larry, I've have looked around here as well with no luck. I was looking to paint RC cars. I'm sure we will be the last to get it in our stores anyway.
If you are going to paint clear lexan rc bodies, use the paint made for it. Any other paint will crack and fall off *** soon as the body flexes or hits something.
Walmart is evil. Don't go there. They force their vendors t open plants in China and that takes away AMERICAN jobs.
look under their parent company name VALSPAR. That I know they have-but I wouldnt use it to paint a car-would make it look like a MAACO job or something my 8 year old kid did.
I have used the model paint in the little jars on a couple shift knobs, turned out ok, but it seemed like all the metallic stayed in the air brush. Also tried the kandy in the spray can, had super good luck with it on a couple of panels and on helmet. But like several people have said i would never use it on a car. It's model paint
Around here, some have it and some don't. One store had it on clearance, so I thought it was going out of all stores, but then another store near me still had it at regular price.
The seller that sells HOK in QTS, on that auction- place-is..... username...... tcpglobal-autobodydepot Tangelo Pearl orange is about 61$ a quart [delivered] in the 48 states. Orion Silver base is about 10$ less....... I didnt think that was much higher than the spraycans in the end.....
I used one can of base...one can of clear...and THREE cans of Candy Tangerine on my Hemi valve covers...open your wallet!
