These vids are for the actual Do-It-Yourself-ers. All you haters who can supposedly do a better job with a rattlecan can just shove it up your a$$es -I'd like to see your Earl Scheib paint jobs LOL!

FYI: This method came from the Mopar forums where several people have had great success. Hot Rod Magazine also featured this method around the same time I painted the tank and concluded that it was well worth it. See this link for details: http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/body/hrdp_0707_1962_ford_falcon_budget_pai...

  • 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.

  • great job!!!!

  • great job, looks identical to the factory from what i can see

  • Thank you so much for the videos I just got done with 4 coats of paint on my wifes truck and it is coming alone great Your videos have help me the most the only bad thing is 5 of my neighbors want there cars done now! thanks again

  • 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!!!
