The color I want to paint my 70 Charger is grape offered by Rustoleom. Should I use it. What are the pros and cons.I am new to models .

i been using Rustoleom for many years with no problem. use the same brand primer and you will be all right. they big cans so shake new cans 3 minuets by the clock. if using the next day 2 minuets. if let set over a day i always go back to my 3 minuets. if you in a cold weather zone and dont have a hobby room set up with a spray booth set the can in warm water for 10 minuets to warm the paint up. they are a lot of people are gonna trash talk Rustoleom paint but if that's what you want to use its your choice. i just told you how i do it..

If not, they offer it in a spray can on their site.

Are you looking for Plum Crazy? Extreme Lacquers has or had a good match to it.

I picked up a can of Mopar touch up paint that is the correct color.

Whatever paint you use, practice on something first.  If it's the 2X Rustoleum stuff it comes out fast and you have to move pretty quickly back and forth.  The key is practice to determine how far away you need to spray and how rapidly you need to move.
