I thought that you were going to use 3000 bottles of Testors model paint?

John u never know w/. some people. Dude, when I was in H.S., I hada a teacher (I think it was his), paint his truck a putrid green color, like color I hi-lighted! With a brush! just thinkin about it!
I think I've seen some pretty sweet roller paint jobs. I wouldn't do black tho, it shows all.

But they do make the new roll on stuff that is self smoothing yah know.. Not that I would ever use it on a car. But have used it to paint 2 diff boats. It is epoxy, drys smooth. You wet sand it, buff it just like spraying it.. Pretty crazy how it has come this far. I know it wasn't like that when you was in school, back in the 50's
