                    That looks pretty dang good!!! I think I might try this!!

                    How durable is this paint? Do you need to clearcoat it or are you going to? How does this paint hold up to the sun?

                      Thank you,
                      I know from personal experience that this paint is extremely durable. It can withstand harsh winters and salty roads. You can also throw rocks at it and it wont chip (I am talking about little rocks that hit the car on the highway)

                      It is not necessary to clear coat it, you can just buff the last coat and it will be pretty shiny. Obviously not as shiny as a professional paintjob, but pretty shiny.

                      It also holds up to the sun well. Just buff it once every couple years and it will look good.

                      Good luck

                          hmm, did you get a 1/4 gallon can?

                          I mix the paint with mineral spirits in a separate container.

                          When mixed, it should be almost as thin as skim milk.

                          One 1/4 gallon can of rustoleum paint should be enough to do 8 coats on entire car.

                          Maybe you are talking about the smaller cans??
