I've never paid any attention to any sales on it. I just know even at normal retail, it's cheaper than CARC.

What is the Behr color for CARC green:?: And can this paint be applied with an air gun:?:
I've used both Behr & Valspar to paint my house using a spray gun & it worked (worked good to) but I'm not sure how that paint would run through an automotive paint gun. You may have to thin it. Sorry can't help with the CARC green. I assume your looking for "CARC 383 green"?

It's the same anywhere. FS 34094 at Home Depot, Lowes, Sherwin Williams, etc. I've bought it at all those with the FS 34094 code.
Look here.

Search feature will find you lots of info on this.
Not sure what you mean by "air gun". HVLP, gravity feed, or old school suction gun. Those all use air. I've only used a smooth roller on my Deuce, and it comes out looking sprayed.

You don't even have to search there is only 1 sticky in this forum and it covers the paint codes .

If you want cheep Home Depot paint you should check your local store every day. There are always gallons of paint that does not match exactly and gets returned. Let the paint people know what you are looking for and they will eventually get something that can be remixed or darkened to be close to CARC. It usually goes for 1/2 price or less.

Big box folk tend to put it on sale around Memorial Day, 4th of July and Memorial Day.
But because they are big box they are moving away from dollars off to prepaid debit cards.
