Default Trunk Spatter Paint



Have been doing a lot of research into Trunk Spatter Paint.
There are several premixed solutions available:

- Zolatone - The Parts Place
- Heartbeat City (Camaro's Plus formula)
- RestoParts (Summit, JEGS, etc.)
- NPD
- Eastwood
- GM Trunk Reconditioning spray
- Thornton's Guru spray cans

All claim to exact per original assembly line spatter paint.

Problem is, most all of these produce a dot/speckle fleck and not the stringy, cob-web effect that Lordstown, Van Nuys and other plants applied.

Looking for tips, suggestions. Thanks!

I would hazard to guess that once the dark grey base is put down, aqua paint with a large tip and low pressure is used to "spooge" out the flecks, spots, and streaks
