i'm a professional and have been for over 10 years and i'm not going to back you up, decent results can be had from cans and last alot longer than 2-5 days, you must be using poundland cans

That must have been a pretty crap job to turn a finish into matt in 5 days, just saying. Have never had a paint job sprayed with cans for satin finish though.

My Dad has rattle canned me spoilers, wings etc no problem to this day.
