100% correct ^^^ ... But most of the time it was really close that you couldnt tell, unless the jobber totally messed up bad and didnt care.

they didnt.. Dupont made what we called FacPacks in pints only. The only gallons i remember were as you mentioned.

this should be put in a shaker for a while and then opened to see if its good. i was a certified Dupont Jobber for 12 years.. 20 years ago i was still making lacquer for a few corvette restorers before Dupont reformulated every last corvette color over to BC/CC in chromabase. even back then my toners were subject to seperating and then hardening in a factory sealed can. just a little FYI.
