The problem with a spray can is that they usually don't spray very evenly, so you'd have a lot harder of a time making it look good and even.
The best bet if you wanted to spray would be to get a nice gravity feed spray gun - but that's obviously more expensive than rollers :D

Thanks for the set of vids-- very informative!

great job!!!
would there be any benefit if i did this with the spray can instead of the roller and how many coats would you reccomend if i use the spray can?

Sure you could do it with a spray can. You can use a compressor & spray gun too. This technique just shows an inexpensive way to paint. The more coats the better.

The paint is an alkyd enamel from Sherwin Williams. Basically the same thing as Rust-Oleum brand. You can the same type of paint mixed up at Home Depot, Walmart, Loes, etc. Make sure you thin the paint to speed up drying time otherwise it'll stay soft and easy to scuff for a long time. See the other vids for more detail on the procedure.
