I kinda just got back from the garage, i was fixing the scratches on my mom's car. The paint that i had to use came with the car when my mom bought it. the stuff is so thick i can't put it on the scratches evenly even with a needle.Why can't they make it any thinner?

if you guys do'nt believe me and want proof , here are a few pictures of my hands

the white stuff is paint because it was dripping off of the can thing when i was using the brush to fix wide scrathes. Don't blame me for the spelling i'm feeling kinda stoned right now after abut an hour of doing car bodywork. cleaning up after the accident when the delivery truck brushed up against our car. The worst thing was his black paint. We had to fix our car ourselves because the insurance doesn't cover repairs

u have to shake it first to thin it up thats usually on the bottle

update i have reason to believe that this paint is excessively old (3years) one very reliable source confirms this
