Cheap paint job
We have been having a lively discussion over on the Studebaker newsgroup
about a really cheap method of painting a car someone has come up with.
http://tinylink.eu/Z0HHF
(if that link doesn't work go to Google Groups and then
alt.autos.Studebaker and look for the "Roller Paint your Studebaker" thread
It involves using a product called "Tremclad", apparently a Canadian
version of Rustolioum, you thin it until it's a big thicker than water,
and then BRUSH it on the car (truck, Jeep) with a foam brush and 4" foam
rollers.
http://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/...0&fpart=1&vc=1
The idea is you give it two coats, wet sand the car, give it a couple
more coats, and repeat. Finally give the car a really good polishing
and a coat of wax.
Obviously you don't want to do this on a show car but to make one look
presentable it might be worth a shot.

Re: Cheap paint jobs
More on cheap paint jobs...
The discussion about roller painting got me curious about other
alternatives.
Anyone ever painted a Jeep with tractor paint?

Most of this stuff seems to be made by Majic paint.

Re: Cheap paint jobs
Didja ever see a tractor that shined at all?
Tractors are notorious for faded paint.
Personally I think that anyone who would paint ANY vehicle with a paint
brush or a roller- deserves what they get.
Sometimes they use a roller to repaint an old jeep top, that's a whole
nother ball of wax though. In that case you would want the orange peel
effect.
