its been a while, and i suddenly decided to paint the car, its not perfect, didn't intended to be either. all i want is to have it looking good 5ft away and stop the rusting. and it end up looking awesome. totally new to painting, didn't mask it good enough and there's over spray from the 2 tone transition by the pillar. but good enough for me, not making it a show car.

rustoleum navy blue for boats, mixed with flattening agent. and rustoleum flat white for the top.

heres some pics.
lots of pics.

That looks GOOD. Pete

Great looking driveway job, You can always go back and touch up the transition points. I like the flat look.

Thanks for posting this! I tried doing a driveway paint job in high school and seriously botched it up. The fact that I was doing it under an avocado tree contributed to the problem.

Nice results... Did you use HVLP gear for this? Acrylic enamel?
