cheapest paint job possible

Wow Fantastic , Being a Offroader and a mildly rusted Frame. and axles. I will try to clean them up some. I liked the hammer tone ones for machinery.. I sprayed bare metal and it was awesum. the paint would be dry the next day with a high gloss.. I never sprayed clear over that, but I bet it is going to be fantastic when I do. I think I only used a pint of Mineral spirits per gallon which keep it high gloss and Tough. I had to mod my gun with a pressure regulator on the vent hole in the cup adding 5psi to help the paint out of the can. do not exceed 5 psi or the bottom will be rounded when it pops down.. I will post pics of the finished Job.. Thanks for reminding me what I can do.. If you paint the body with this paint without the hammer you will be ablle to drive thru limbs dragging down the side of your truck.. and when it looks bad just buff it out.. I have used Epoxy that is not as tough as the Rustolem..
