    Default DIY paint?

    Has anyone ever rolled or sprayed their own car? I want to do a flat white or black but want something durable. Anyone ever tried this before?

    sprayed, hence the name.

    I had flat white, i shall warn you now you're going to regret it.

    Rustoleum professional, wetsand, and meguiars ultimate compound will get it done.

    I did with a hlvp gun and compressor i wouldnt suggest rattle can lol. Remember when choosing a flat color you devalue the car you can no longer wax it you can only use certain soaps and it gets hard to clean.

    I am in the finishing stages of painting the car, but I think its worth it in the end.

    What others are saying about flat paint is true. Eventually you will get "bored" with it. If you really want to learn try www.autobody101.com.
    Great information on that site.
