I've been told that the rustoleum you can buy in the gallon cans actually sprays quite nicely. I've also read a few articles on using that paint with a roller. Sounds strange I know, but the photos I've seen along with the written up jobs seem to look pretty good. A buddy of mine just picked up a '77 Firebird that he wants to try the roller method on, it'll be an interesting experience. My job on the Camaro is 100% rattle can though, if I do it again I'm gonna get the gallon and use a real spray gun....I couldn'y use my finger for a few days after that paint job.
