Best semi-gloss black aerosol paint?

The first coats lay down with a translucent look which the semi-flat (now satin) never did. It's much easier to get runs whereas the previous formula was 3 medium passes and walk away.

The X-O is testy but it lays down and covers nice and the durability appears to be superior. But it's definitely a shoot it and step away from the part for 8 hours paint.

I agree completely with your assessment of the Krylon. It was soooo perfect. But I don't think the X-O will work for me. I simply don't have the patience to wait 8 hours for ANYTHING. I will stick my fingers in it or worse yet, try to "carefully" install the taillights while it is still tacky & ruin the job. I know me... it's one of my many shortcomings!
