No rattle can finish is as good as cup mixed spray. That being said, there are some 2-in-1 epoxy rattle can paints that are fairly durable. The vast majority are not meant to be clear-coated, wet-sanded or recoated. You can recoat, but all i does is make the paint thick and somewhat less durable.


The best bike paint I've found is catalyzed polyurethane over epoxy primer. You can get by with a normal sandable primer, but the epoxy primer covers scratches better. If you use regular primer, you have to go over the little imperfections with spot putty.
