$14 spray can. $2140 repair cost.
He had a few minor chips and scratches, bought a spray can to fix them, made a mess and then tried to take it off with another spray can. This time of paint stripper.
Yes, a knowledgeable, competent person can achieve reasonable results with a spray can.
But, the people who use spray cans are generally neither knowledgeable, nor competent, while those who are will more than likely use a spray gun.
The other thing is, as you would know, it depends how the spray can is charged and what kind of spray tip it has. I’ve used spray cans prepared by guys like you and, I agree, they’re not so bad. Joe Public, though, doesn’t buy those because the generic stuff is cheaper or he just doesn’t realise that he should go to a paint distributor, rather than an auto parts store.
Here are the after shots of that car above. You won’t get a result like that with spray cans. 😉
