== From the discussion ==
* The spray in the write-up is '''Dupli-Color''' trim paint (not "Du-Plo").
* SEM trim black is the other common brand; it is harder to find and not clearly better. Dupli-Color nozzles spray well and it sticks to plastic and metal if the prep is right ([[M5BB]], [[mogie]], [[Mike W.]]).
* [[John in VA]] has also used 3-in-1 or WD-40 on dulled aluminum trim for a short-term show shine (messy).
* [[mogie]] later switched to Transtar trim paint: smooth, fast dry; long-term durability unknown at the time of the post.
