It HAS to be topcoated. No getting around it.I'm thinking off using dupli-color if it doesn't need to be top coated.
Why? If the manufacturer doesn't say so?It HAS to be topcoated. No getting around it.
Ask ANYBODY who has used it without sealing it. When the unprotected splatter paint comes in contact with water, it becomes a slimy mess.Why? If the manufacturer doesn't say so?

Take the advice of all that can reply with, "AMHIK".
Per my link aboveWhat brand was it?
I used Autozone`s Duplicolor brand and a week later I decided to clean up the trunk from dust with a wet rag. Guess what happened? Exactly what Commando said!!
That is the one I actually used, I got from O'reilly. Didn't see when I looked for link, saw new packaging/labelthis is what I used
Duplicolor Spatter Trunk Paint, Black & Grey, 11 oz. Aerosol DM102: Advance Auto Parts
Maybe the one you are referring to is water resistant..
I think the the "Trunk" paint has replaced the "Spatter" paint.If you go to DupliColor's web site, they show only the TSP10x line.
So WTF is going on if they sell two different types but only show one on their website?

TSP is lacquer based, i.e. water resistant.
The DM is what I used with no problems (unsealed) and what I have to test.Well, I'll murky up things a bit more, then. lol.
It was the DM "spatter paint" that I was referring to when I said it needed to be sealed.
