I bought a car that was sprayed with Rustoleum gloss black paint the left outside
for about 4 yrs. It did fade but has a great patina, looks like the paint is original
80 yrs. old kind of nice look. Car looks unrestored.
I have painted cars and boats with acrylic enamel paint with a hardner in it with
a foam roller. I let it dry and wet sanded and polished them. Everyone that saw them
thought they had been sprayed. (about 3 coats with a roller) also a foam roller with
acrylic paint you go thru about 5 or 6 roller in the process as the paint softens them up.
