An A-body freak friend of mine is well along in the process of painting his '64 Valiant (225 2x1bbl 4-speed) using the Rustoleum/foam-roller method. He's not done yet and it's already clearly going to come out great.

Last month this guy rolled his Imperial....
Just finished rubbing it out today......
Do the people that use the roller still use an automotive paint??
Wow. not only am I watching this thread, but I'm seriously considering this. I mean. if it comes out piss-poor, I'm 50 dollars in the hole, and have some more sanding ahead of me. What do I have to lose?
EDIT: Other than the respect of half of the FABO community ;)
That's the half I could care less about.
Here is a pic of a VW Bug the guy with the Charger did. Done with a roller.
The blue one was sprayed, he rolled the orange beetle and the Charger.

I used Interlux Brightsides 1-part polyurethane, which is normally sold for boats but I bet they sell as much for cars since 69Charger's post. The downside is color selection. I mixed 4 parts white to 1 part yellow for my Dart, which looks perfect and it helps that white is much less expensive (~$70/gal).
Our very own member, Calvin, (clhyer) painted his Duster with rustoleum. I've seen it, touched it and worked on it. Up close and personal. I am here to tell you boys, that car looks GOOD.
