I decided to respray my MC a couple of years ago but couldn't decide what color. I bought 2 small cans of blue and burgandy just to see. As it turns out I never used either opting for something else which left 2 metal spray paints 3/4 full. I also had some silver anti rust paint left over from the same job and decided to try and cheer up some plastic garden pots with all 3, the pots still look great while the bike needs another respray LOL. Wall paints look great painted on terracotta and you don't have to be a great artist either. Beats paying a fortune out on coloured pots in the garden centre and saves throwing away an expensive chemical too.
