    sabotaz is matte, so it dries faster. sabotaz has a variable pressure valve system giving more control. sabotaz is all weather, so you can leave it sitting in the snow or whatever and it won't freeze. I believe sabotaz is thicker but I haven't used it. $6 a can.

    mtn is gloss, so it takes longer to dry. mtn has a high pressure valve system, so less control. I think mtn covers better, however, I haven't used sabotaz. $4 a can if you know where to go, or a little more if you don't.

    mtn also makes alien can that 250mL cans (versus the usual 400mL) and are matte and have a variable pressure system.

    it's all preference, gloss drips a little more easily, but it pops, and catches the light more than matte.

    If it reads "New Color!" on the can, I'd get one just to try it. I've heard the new colors are thicker/better/less crappy.

    I've had a couple of colors to test of the "New Color!" Krylon, today.

    The colors were Totally Tangerine, Gumdrop, and Blue Ocean Breeze.

    Gumdrop was fairly Thick, covered black well, and wasn't that shitty.

    Blue Ocean Breeze was also not that shitty, had pretty good consistency/ pretty thick.

    Totally Tangerine is pure SHIT. DONT BUY THIS COLOR. DONT EVEN RACK THIS COLOR.

    would it also be acceptable to just put the mask in a big ziploc and squeeze the air out?

    @ fnt mtn Alien is NOT matte, that would make no sense. the whole premise for the alien line is that you can cut back and do details after you do your big fills with the hardcore. i've only actually used 3 or 4 cans of it, but i'm looking at a canvas with alien on it and it's gloss.

    Sabotaz is what i like to consider a mix of MTN hardcore and montana gold (matte paint) because it has great coverage (like mtn) but great pressure and in matte (like montana gold). It also has solid pressure and it doesn't really take advantage of the pressure control valve the way montana gold does. It's pretty much one pressure line, with splatter if you try to let up. But still, for everything, it's my prime paint. It works for bombing and burners, the pressure is less than mtn but more solid than montana gold. Can't go wrong. HOWEVER, as i found out recenty. It-does-not-like-rusto. rusto EATS sabo, and when it dries, flakes off . i dont know why

    usually the only places that carry montana, belton, etc. are art stores, cool art stores that you don't steel from cause the people that own them are one shop mom and pop stores, if you want montana, buy it, this ain't bomb the system

    and for all you cats that like krylon, if ya don't know, the best place to get it is wal-mart, if you don't wanna rack, go to the paint section and peel off the .97 cent stickers from the cheap paint and through it right over the krylon sticker, nocks off about 2-3 bucks in price, the cashiers don't know the difference either, give it a shot

    What is 'scrapyard' and what country do you come from? And what is your native language. Drop.one.
