Was you spraying out in the hot sun and the metal was hot? That will cause the clumps.

I will not buy anything from them [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img] for reasons I won't go into here. So I never used there brand, most likley it is repackaged anyway. I have had nice results with Seymour paints, but I do not use allot of rattle can paint.

Stainless Paint
