OK, Here is my last attempt to post about my experience with rustoleum. I changed my setting on G Mail. I don't understand why I can send and receive e mails all day long, but have trouble posting to the 62 to 65 list! GRRR....................... Anyway, here is a copy of the posting I tried to send on Friday and earlier today.........
" I read the posting about rolling on the rustoluem paint from
another Mopar board about a year ago. I decided to try it on my 93 Dodge pickup. My truck is(was) the light metallic silver/gray color, and every where that something had made even a tiny nick in the paint, it started peeling away within a few months. It had started looking pretty ratty, because parts of the hood and top had started rusting. I decided to go with the Rustoluem gloss black.I wet sanded/scuffed it with 280 grit. Then I carefully taped around the trim. I used the rustoluem gloss black in spray cans around the trim, and where the windows, etc. were taped up. Then I "experimented" a little with how much mineral spirits to thin the paint with. (A couple of trials required sanding off the goofs.) After I get it where it worked good, I rolled the whole upper portion of the truck. ( Below the belt line trim, the paint color is blue and in good shape, so I left it alone.) I have a few runs and minor "ugly spots", but it would be very easy to sand them out and touch it back up. (I may do that one day if I ever get any spare time. LOL) I did not do all of the fine wet sanding and polishing, etc, like in the article, but I think it could be done if I wanted to put forth the time and effort. But for the 95% improvement in the appearance of my work truck, I am very happy with the results. I don't think I would do this on my old muscle cars that I would put in shows, but it works good for a daily driver.."< If anybody wants to see before and after pics, you can e mail me LEESUMPTER (at) GMAIL.
