I used it. I was not happy with it. I felt the color gray was too light and the splatter was hard to control. It would spit out large spots that you would have to go over and re-do.The video shows the car on it side on a rotator. This would probably be beneficial so you could keep the can up right/parellel to the surface you are spraying. It seems the large splatter spots came when the can was tilted. My two cents.

I was actually thinking of using blacK epoxy primer as a base and just use the spatter. You think that would work? I will also apply it like they did in the video.

I agree, rattle cans get the job done....but for accuracy and to duplicate it as GM did it....it needs a spray gun and the right person behind the spray gun.
