Default Where to buy paint?
I went to Home Depot, everything there is rustoleum.

There's no other brands of paint there. Also, I don't have a Walmart near me. Can anyone recommend me a place to buy spray paint?
Also, please don't say "Just go to an auto parts store". Name a specific company.
Thanks for the help.

R&S Strauss by me had Duplicolor and Krylon
Also mom and pop Hardware stores usually stock spray paint in limited color selections
I use krylon but I am not against others

Strauss isn't in MA.

I guess I could always go check out Auto Zone or something.
Thanks for the help anyways.

Auto Zone would work
check their web site first. If the web sells a particular brand then the stores more than likely do also

Their site doesn't have any spray paint listed.

I could also go to Advance Auto Parts, they're also ~4 miles away.

Sherwin-Williams also makes spray paint. Look for the label "Industrial Enamel". Or if you're after something exotic these guys are reasonable:

Get any automotive paint. No specific brand needed but make sure it's automotive grade paint. Usually and auto parts store will have the best stuff. Wal-mart's selection sucks as well as K-mart. Target doesn't sell spray paint anymore so no go there. I got mine from PepBoys.
