Really that was your review, a little info on how far away to spray and drying times at least would have been good.
I mentioned the spraying distance relative to what most people use.
If you want the exact spraying distance in inches (which you’ll never get “on the fly”) I suggest you read the instructions, but it won’t be much use !
It’s not an exact science, as it depends on where you’re spraying, dustiness, wind and humidity. That’s why I mention relative distance.
In the same fashion, drying time depends heavily on the weather.
I believe I pointed out the differences between that spray can and the other “mainstream” spray cans gamers use… There aren’t any other features, bells or whistles on any spray can to discuss, really.
I’m sorry if this sounds snappy, but… Yeah, this was my review.
Anything else you’d like to know about that spray can ?

I liked the review and he did mention spraying distance – further than GW 😉 Regardless though I think you do get to see the results pretty well and it looks like it’s nice, fine coverage. My spray of choice is Hycote Grey Primer but I’ve forayed into the Halfords line and this looks similar to the results I get for that so one I’d be happy to use if I found it in my local store. Thanks for the review =)
I’m sure I saw this paint at the spring fair at the NEC. i was working at the time so didn’t have time to ask questions but if it’s the same gear there were quite a few colours
Thanks for mentioning the colours, at the moment I have Black, Dark Grey, Light Grey and White.
