And let me just give a huge thanks to all the threads started and every link given. They inspired me and truly made the process worth while. I'll get pictures up soon but this is mostly a huge "Thank you" thread for all the time and effort put forth by others who have given such great information on the process.
The car was a mixed with 70>30 "Rustoleum" Gloss Sunrise Red and 100% Mineral Spirits. Sanded with a progressive 180-320-400-800 process and wet sanded with 600-800-1000 between each coat of paint. Wet sanded with 800-1000 after two coats on the body, fenders, doors and hood. I'm in the final two coats and the car already has had several Pizza Delivery guys asking how I painted the car. It's fantastically smooth and glossy. I've taken alot of time with the sanding between coats and tried numerous methods with using the roller.
Thanks a bunch to everyone out there who has completed this nifty, cheap process.
