one can will cover 4 or 5 wheels as OEM paints go a lot further than a normal can of spray paint. I have a new can of the OEM Honeycomb paint I got for $40 a while back and I felt like I got taken at that price. Unfortunately there are only one or two places carrying their paint anymore and they all seem to be priced the same as what your finding. If you call OEM direct and speak to the owner he will agree to sell it direct to you, but at a minimun quantity of 3 cans and his price is no better. I just got 2 of the last cans of OEM Pontiac '72 Engine Teal from the Paddock that they have and paid $43 a can for them. You can have the PPG dealer mix the original honeycomb formula still or just find a close rattle can substitute and save the difference.
