I have been using rustoleum paint for several years for touch up and
small body work. I mixed a little almond color with white gloss to
get an off white color to match the paint on the Duster.

I used the rollered Rustoleum to paint my Valiant. It holds up well enough for me, and touch up is easy. Finding matching paint is a cinch! :wink:

More importantly: Because it didn't require a large cash outlay at any point, and I could work on it when I felt like it, and I could do it by myself, IT GOT DONE.

But — DEAR GOD, THINK OF THE WIND RESISTANCE!!!!! :)



Should be better..............

A dimpled golf ball has less resistance. :twisted:
