"From this guy" what exactly does that mean? and of course it is dried up as the listing clearly states. it also turns back to paint when lacquer thinner is added but highly doubt it would adhere or dry. its not intended to be used as touch up only as a novelty for your glove box. you are buying the packaging and labels.

That's awesome! Thanks for posting. I found my color so I just bought a set for my 59 Windsor. It'll be fun to have as an accessory, but I may even try to revive a bottle to see what happens.

greg p and mstrug thanks to both of you. I did add lacquer thinner to a bottle, and it returned to paint, but I think that would dilute the color and I am not sure if it would adhere or dry. most old paint the drying agents evaporate but I add "JAP" dryer to it and you can use it, but that is a 1/4 ounce to a quart, and that's with enamel. not sure if it would work with lacquer and such a small amount. anyhow it is the coolest accessory because of the labeling and don't recommend using it on your car.. I bought a complete lot of 180 3 bottle kits, probably 120 saleable, and sold 25 of them in 10 days. even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. on the other hand I bought 1878 water neck gaskets 6 months ago and finally sold 20 to a fella. 1858 to go.lol
