A good alternative ? to the 400m rattle can.
Gives more coverage and with a brush easier to touch up specific spots , get into the nooks and crannies without over spraying most of the engine compartment which then means you have overcoat that with white paint which then puts white spots over the green...................

Volvo engines can be specified in white shows up oil leaks better
There used to be a Ford paint that was very close but that was before Volvo changed to water based

Haven’t yet found one that beats the original aerosol cans from VP….it covers well and dries in minutes so you can fit parts without delay.

Agree, but I did find the repower Volvo green paint a reasonable compromise, it too covers well and dries within about 20mins and can take the heat of my turbo.
