Product Types
1000ml Paint Tin
Normal paint tin for brush / roller / thinning and spraying
1000ML Schutz Undercoating Tin
Stubby Schutz Tin. These tins work with our FX10 Spraygun & FX11 Spraygun. The gun screws directly on. To use a normal Schutz gun with a stubby schutz tin, you need to trim the pickup tube 75mm shorter.
5000ml Paint Tin
Normal paint tin for brush / roller / thinning and spraying
400ML Aerosol (traditional)
Traditional aerosol.
400ML Buzzweld Powercan The Aerosol powercan uses NO THINNER. as a result the can outputs the same amount of paint as a spraygun. This means less coats, a much higher film build and time saved. HOWEVER- the cans empty themselves very quickly. Protection VS coverage. When using a powercan you need to spray from further away. This can can also be used as a textured bedliner spray (comes with two nozzles).

I used this on a landrover bulkhead and if its a textured finish you are looking for this it the paint to use. Only thing I found is doesn't go very far. 2 x 1l tins only done half a bulkhead making it a bit expensive.
