That's actually an excellent idea.

Due to the factory texture, a roller would work really well, unlike
typical vehicles painted with rollers! <G>

I've painted textured roll-up doors on trucks with enamel, applied with
a short nap roller, and it came out well. I never thought of using one
on a Jeep hardtop.

I once watched a guy paint his car with a 4 inch brush and a can of latex
house paint. That was a unique finish !
