menards or lowes have a paint that works?

[meindl]

I use automotive brand paints, mainly dupont. I do not really want to spend $135 a gallon to paint my deuce, and would rather get it locally than order it. Does Lowes or Menards have a type that anyone has used? I will be spraying it of course. Valspar or Sherwin Williams possible? The low or semi-gloss seems to be difficult to get in the color I want, flat black not a problem. Any answers.
Thank you.

I agree with the above replies. "Any" of the major brand paints are gonna work just fine...Behr, Porter, SW, Valspar...etc. They are all quality paints so it's really just deciding on the color. I have a paint contracting business and I couldn't tell you how many metal store front facades we've painted over the years. If it's prepped properly, it's going to be ok....and a heck of a lot cheaper, not to mention touch up of scratches that you know are going to happen. Good luck and post the pics when you're done.

I always use Gillespie from Rapco. Order 4 gallons to save $$$$, and it's a good reason to buy another truck!
