Has anyone painted their car with rollers

That is the longterm plan, 73. But, as a temporary fix, money saving opportunity, and frankly... a curious itch that must now be scratched, I was going to try this out ^^

Nice find 73, Sully Don't let anyone or start you or stop you, accept you, it all depends what your overall goal is. If you can spray the Rustoleum it will be less sanding work.

Taking into consideration what res1vw21 and others have said about lack of UV protection, add a clear coat and keep it in wax and call it a day, you should be golden for years to come.



Just found a link discussing best UV protection methods/wax:

Here are a couple wise comments:

"...Nothing protects your cars paint like weekly washing and application of your favorite wax/selant at least every two months. If you follow that regimen, you'll wear out your car before you need new paint."

"There's no better UV protection then Clearcoat paint. Nothing compares to it on any level really. I can't see how something you spread on the surface of your car will give you measureable UV protection for anything more than a few hours. It's basically suntan lotion for you paint which is useless really."



You be the judge. Good Luck and let us know how it turns out! Pics please!
