I believe most of the SEM stuff is called a 'dye' but it works just like a spray paint, im sure its formulated different than the average can of rustoleum.
Also, I get mine from my local auto parts store. If they dont have the colour I need they can get it in a couple of days. I pay about $12-$14 a can which is a lot cheaper than mail order stuff.

thanks, just curious what you used for texture.
SEM products are great. but none of them are called a dye, they are called "color coat" & state on the can it is a flexible paint designed to adhere to plastics & vinyls better than standard paint.
