[AT] paint question

[charlie hill]

I believe Tractor Supply sells that Majic brand.  I think that's what I saw
on their web site.  I've never used it.

I have had good luck with the Majic brand that Big R sells.  I use the
hardener with it, no fading after 6 years.  Holds up well also.

I have used the Tractor supply paint for trucks and trailers.  It is Valspar
paint, if you use the hardener, It is the same as the $200/gal House of
Color paint.. I always use the hardener.  Also it is only $35/gal w/ the
hardener.  The hardener prevents fading....

Magic brand paint that Tractor Supply sells and the Rust-Oleum that Lowes
sells are oil based enamels. How good are these paints? I looked at Por-15
and was turned off by the price.
