What a PITA - duff Halfords spray can
Popped to Halfords last night for a can of satin black spray paint to finish my rocker cover off after modifying the oil filler position. Simple blow
over with paint, refit ready for a pre SVA shakedown this afternoon.
I must have a duff can as it just sprays out clear with a few specs of black in it. I tried heating the can a bit, shaking it like a mad man and
nothing
Now I'm going to have to refit a primered rocker cover for the shakedown and probably SVA, then come back anf sort it afterwards 
Why is it the simplest jobs are the ones that always go wrong?

I had an issue with Halfords paint when painting some wheels. Used the steel colur paint. On the last can i had to do one last blow over of the wheels
before lacquer. The last tim was a different colour. I took all o fthe tins back down along with 2 wheels, explained the problem to manager and got a
full new set of cans FOC along with some fresh lacquer to finish them off. Ok i had to do another coat of paint but they were more than fair in giving
me extra paint for the job.
Ive had paint tin problems before with other suppliers as well. Its one of those things i guess. Not nice but can happen.

I went to Halfords for a p!ss can for my bike wheel and came away without one, £7 was a bit too rich for me. I got one from GeeJays shop in Alfreton
for £1.80 and they had satin and matt black and clear lacquer as well.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
