Has anyone painted their car with rollers

I guess not all naysayers took the suggestions to first read the moparts post. Your statement could be true for Rustoleum (I haven't researched). The Interlux Brightsides polyurethane paint I used is used to paint boats, usually fiberglass with a degraded gel coat. They claim it lasts ~5 years, but my car isn't sitting in the sun and salt spray so I am hoping for 20 years.

Not what I would use on a car because it will typically get rock hard (may chip if prep work isn't 100%) but a polyurethane paint = lasting much longer and like you said not in the sun/salt all the time so it should last.

I think thats what I used on my boat (lake use only and pull it out every time) it's still shinny (+5 years) and admittedly I didn't prep it right. (Has chips more from docks ect and being towed on the freeway then I would like to see, planning on redoing it this winter and using automotive single stage paint most likely PPG or glasurit 21 line.)


I am a big supporter of driving your car, thats what they were made for. As long as it's safe and your happy then do it! All I was trying to say is enamels (and an uncatalyzed one even more) don't last, I have seen it time and time again.
