i think a few people on here have. its pretty good paint by what i've seen it should last a few years.  i think any paint will look good as long as you take your time and do a good job.

get the tractor impliment paint.... and actually spray it with a good gun!

done with proper prep work...


done with just scuffing and painting... vs sanding down and priming.

Used a roller and some foam brushes. Doesn't look too bad with minimal prep work. It always ends up looking the same at the end of the day anyhow.

we painted a jeep with it, turned out pretty good other than the red turned out orange, but thats prolly our mixing skills that did that.

I'VE DONE THAT!  PINK AND BLACK.  BLACK SPRAY ON TOP AND TITTY PINK UNDER THE BODY LINE ON MY 78   COULDNT TAKE IT TO ANY KIND OF POWER WASH, THE PINK WOULD HAVE BEEN BLOWN OFF  loll

Try "Steve's Automotive" in Oxford.  It will obviously cost you more, but like most things in life that do  - are usually worth it.  If you didn't care what it looked like, you wouldn't be asking.  The reason why I recommended Steve's - they walked me through the entire process.  When I was done, I impressed the hell out of myself and within 3 days it was covered in mud and you couldn't tell what freakin' color it was anyway.  So, ask yourself... does it really matter?
