Was looking for the same paint coating close to as possible the Astro-Tone dark gray used on the '70 Challenger non-R/T grill surround. Happened to be in Pep Boys looking through the paint locker and ran across a can of spray paint I thought I would try. Tried it out on a piece of scrap metal and found this stuff resembles the dark gray Astro-Tone paint used by the factory. Shot the grill and was very pleased with the outcome. Has the right color and enough of the metallic flake to look factory. It also comes in a light gray also and at $7.00 or $8.00 bucks a can give it a try. Really no disappointments here. Great for grills, rear SE trim panels and rallye wheel center caps. Thanks,   Al

In the right sun; Roger's Argent glitters at you like you're a movie star.


I've seen some Rattle can stuff at shows and it's just too fine a grain.

Just no Disco effect.   :))

Did not  impress me.


I haven't used this but I know a guy who used it over argent paint that didnt have enough "disco"
