RE: Rustoleum Universal Paint
I bought paint from my local auto parts store today. It was their own brand. I mixed it with their thinner and sprayed my first coat on my fuse and wing. I estimate I only used about 2 ounces. This looks great already. 4-5 more coats and it will be awesome. 1 pint of blue and 1/2 pint yellow and the thinner totaled $31.00. I still have to check it to make sure it is fuel proof. If not I will get a pint of clearcoat.
I was loking for the Rustoleum Professional when I ran across these guys. There happened to be a guy in the parts store around 80 years old who built and flew RC. Since he recommended their paint, and I was tired of looking, I bought it. I am glad I did now. Oh ya...I used the Rustoleum gloss white on the belly of my plane. Bought it at Lowes. Now I am glad they did not have any other colors available so I had to keep looking. The Rustoleum went on heavy. I may sand it off and use the auto parts paint. If you can afford a compressor, go for it. It goes on so much better than spray cans.
