See last month’s hot rod mag. They painted a car with rustoleum, and said they got their info from some mopar forum. Cheap materials, but a shitload of labor. ---

It looks really good. Seems like a waste of time almost. Since I don’t have that kind of time to just spend weeks on painting a car. I might try it some day though ---

Hot Rod seemed to be pleased with the outcome as well. I guess if a person has very little cash, but lots of time, it’s a good deal. ---

I guess a $20 harbor freight spray gun would break the budget? No matter how bad you are at spraying, it would still be a hell of a lot easier! You could still sand and buff. ---
