What's everything I need to paint my project?
We sell complete paint kits for any size vehicle here: https://thespraysource.com/collections/all-car-kits. Just choose the color and answer 4 questions and we add all the products needed to complete the project!
What is this basecoat made out of?
This is an Acrylic Urethane Basecoat.
Does this paint need a clearcoat on top?
Yes, this is a basecoat paint which needs a high quality clearcoat sprayed over top of it for durability and shine. We recommend AC-4521 or any of the other Alpha Automotive Clearcoats on our website.
Can you paint your calipers with this paint?
Yes - our paints work great on calipers, engine blocks, and valve covers!
What is the recoat & topcoat window for Alpha Automotive Basecoats?
You have an 8hr recoat window. If its over 8hrs - scuff with a gray scuff pad , spray another coat of base, then continue as normal with the project.
How can I add a Pearl effect of another color while not changing the end result color much?
We would recommend you either adding Diamond pearls into the base coat or ideally spray our Diamond pearl midcoats over top. Over top will give you the most effect while also not changing the color as much as mixing it. Also mixing it in you will need quite a bit of pearl to be able to see it.
Is this ready to spray out of an airbrush or would it have to be thinned?
Flows out of a .5 or larger. Any smaller it MIGHT have to be further reduced

Customer photo review of Kentucky Bourbon Spray Can

I am more accustomed to painting with nitro, but these guitar kits are waaaay faster. Going from primer to midcoat to clearcoat in one day is awesome!

We're thrilled that you're enjoying the process and that the kit is helping you move through your project more efficiently. The finish is already looking great—thanks for choosing us!

Customer photo review of Kentucky Bourbon Paint Basecoat

I used this color for my marketplace Mustang wheels that I fitted to a Honda Prelude I just finished painting. They turned out great! I love the color. Not too gold or yellow. Bronzes can be like that sometimes. I think I am going to paint my C10 this color in the future! 2 coats over black and it worked great. Thanks 👍🏼

Customer photo review of Kentucky Bourbon Paint Basecoat

With a black ground coat underneath the Kentucky bourbon, it turned out, absolutely beautiful. The metallic pop the pearls look great and just the whole undertones of the paint are beautiful. Very happy with it and very easy to spray. Shot with a 1.3 air gun saw. At about 22 psi’s.

Store owner replied: Thank you for the feedback, Todd! We're glad to hear you’re loving the painted sample. Kentucky Bourbon paint really pops and definitely worth the wait when you’re ready to lay it down! Thank you for supporting TSS. 🤝

First bottle damaged during transit, insurance covered it and shipped a new bottle right away. Its a nice color, by all means, just wasn't quite what I was looking for. Was hoping it would be more of a burnt bronze, how it looked on my screen on the website, but still a nice color. I'm sure I'll find something else to use it for!
