Brownells sells it in spray cans. I have no idea what I specifically use. I use an airbrush, so I order the liquid form, rather than the aerosol can.

Mongo,
Do you think that the cans would give the same result as an airbrush? Seems to me that the nozzles on the cans would be significantly inferior to the airbrush.

Cans go on a tad thicker, I thnk, but the best thing I've heard about can spraying is to heat the can slightly before spraying, like in a pot of warm water. This smooths out the spray and allows better control in both pattern and thickness. I've never KG'd anything out of a can, I always use the liquid in my air brush.

I've only done Norrell's in tan and KG in flat black. It's hard for me to form an opinion that would make me like one over the other. They both are nice, but reports say KG is a bit more durable than Norrell's. Wish I could say more.

I've heard the opposite, which is one of the reasons I stay with Norrells. I've also heard that they are different versions of the same thing.....
