Do a search here on "trunk spatter paint". There are plenty of pics and data. Note John Z's car and info. As well as pics of other survivors.

I have the trunk paint from LArry but can't seem to find any info on the "shotz gun".  Is there another name these guns go by?

It looks like that type gun is primarily used for under coating. I assume that the under coating comes in a canister that screws into the gun. I have not been able to find any lose canisters that fit this type gun. My trunk splatter paint is in a quart container. Dose anyone  know if they sell these canisters and if so where?
THANKS

Sorry for the spelling error. I should know better. I've had the same gun for 25 years. It's primarily used for undercoating and chip guard. Since it's introduction other designs and manufacturers are available. You can order one or get one from your local supplier. Application of various products require viscosity and gun pressure adjustments and distances to achieve the look you want. I've never had to purchase an empty container because I always saved a couple canisters after they were empty.
