Hi, I've never posted in this forum before...butttt....today at work I found some old...really old, enamel paints in pint cans. Most of these look to be from the 70's..early 80's. I found some VW colors...and shaking the cans, I was suprised that they were still liquid form, not hardened up. Does anybody have an idea how good the paints might be to use? I found several VW colors...most from the 70's though. I haven't cracked any open...Thanks

Scott

Open one up and see what you got! Tell us what brand they are? VW cans? Even if it aint no good as usage it might make a cool display! Heck I might want one if you decide to do somehting with them? Do you have a paintshaker at work? If not see if a paint store like sherwin williams or an autobody supply or even a lowes store can shake it up. You might be surprised they might work still! Pint cans wont paint a cr but touch ups or detailng would be great when sprayed.
