Thank you for this info/pic. Really eases my mind about painting mine (my G2 kit arrived today).

Is the Duplicolor caliper paint viscosity thin enough to use w/ the Preval sprayer?

These are a very handy way to turn cans of paint into aerosols.

It won't work w/ really thick stuff, like epoxy, but few things will push that through a spray anyway.

As I recall the paint is quite thin.
