I wouldn't call it tacky, at least not any tackier than flip-flop or chameleon-type paint. Very unique.

I'm willing to try it. Go ahead and start a collection. I'd bet it'd look good on BCP.

Yea same. I have seen similar spray can paint. I was thinking of using it on a sub box or something.

If you like temp changing paint check out this.... It will go from any color you want to any other color. If they dont have what you want in stock they will make it for you.
