Default Paint Job POURED On & Rolled Out $50 Rustoleum

Depending on how picky you are and how much money you have to blow, this might be the choice method for you. Rustoleum is $27 a gallon and it takes less than a gallon to paint one car.

Check out this video:

Here's the playlist in stages as I learned:

It'll work for this project thats for sure!

Yep! It aint bad. I cant wait to finish it off in the spring.

I'll be posting a street race video soon and all you see is reflections off the hood and it wasnt even washed. No, its not as shiny and deep as the regular automotive paint. But its not bad at all. ESPECIALLY for a truck that had no paint.

Yea, that is a lot of work. Thats why I'll be spraying on the rest of the truck, but same paint.

But also like they say "you either got time or you've got money".

This proves that its possible for somebody to paint their vehicle with minimum tools. Most give up on the idea of painting their vehicle because they dont have a compressor, paint gun or think it'll just cost too much. This gives the budget builders a way.

Use that same paint with a spray gun thinned alot. Rustoleum paint is self leveling so you dont have to be a pro to shoot it. I painted my tool boxes with it a year ago and it turned out great.
