Dude... this is a question for experienced mechanics and restorers.

I am a mechanic. i just wanted to now which is the best graff paint that stays on the longest.

Because cars are made out of concrete?

I'd expect you'd use better paint that whatever some tagger managed to shoplift from Walmart.

do you honestly understand how much of a royal pain in the ass it it to set up, prep, and then clean a HVLP gun?

its so much cheaper to get a can of graff paint.

NYC Transit Authority have to use solvents on the good kinds of graff paint to get them off of trains.

I can only speak from experience. I've never spray painted a car, but graff paint certainly isn't a bad idea. There isn't really one answer. Generally the better brands of paint have wider operating temperatures, hold up in weather and have features aimed at artists, like variable pressure valves to alter the paint flow. Where I live, mtn 94 is incredibly popular because of how versatile it is. The black in your pic is designed for high pressure, covering large surfaces quickly. Taggers love it because of how quick you can graff something up, but it's not good for detailed work or your wallet, since you'll eat through a can much quicker.

Low pressure paints like 94, molotow and flame tend to be better for control and waste less paint if you have the time to work on something. These are probably also better for multiple coats due to their controllability. All Graff paints should adhere to metal. They're not designed for purely concrete at all, they're designed to be weatherproof on less than perfect surfaces with no primer or lacquer, so they should all hold up to car parts, though I'd clean the surface before hand, and I imagine priming can never hurt if you're inclined to do it.

None of that was helpful.

thanks, I forgot the brand I had scored a few cans of when i last used the graff paint on the suspension parts, since its been 6 years or so. I had gotten them from a skate/head shop i bought my friend a fancy bong from.

regular spray paint gets eaten up suprisingly quick when you get a vehicle low or really high.

the parts i will be painting arent going to get hot, being lower suspension parts for the front end, under the truck. I just want solid, sturdy max coverage with high visibility, so we can see if something gets fucked up when he goes woods running. I know some of the guys i came up with in the ricer scene use Molotow for refurbing the finish on track parts they get used in the SCCA spec civic and Miata series.

I might use some to refurb an old toolbox.

thanks for the post man.

You strut in to a board called GRAPHIC DESIGN and start asking technical questions about painting fucking car parts, and then you get pissy when the answers aren't up to your standards?

Get the fuck out of here, you entitled asshole. Your question is completely off topic. I hope you wreck your brother's stupid classic car and die.
