We have bought the 99-cent paint and the 3.98 paint. We paint more steel faster with the more expensive paint. There was a day, not too long ago when the contents of the can were listed, x% solids, y% propellant etc. We used to look for the higher solids content or more paint less spray as it were.

The Rustoleum Stripe paint works well. For cleaning the paint off the steel when it gets too thick, we find #8 shot and an Imp Cyl choke works well and is a lot more fun than a wire brush!

When you look back on your life and think 'If Only" remember this, if you had done it differently, you would still be looking back and wondering "What If?" but only about different things

Experience is something you normally get right after you need it.......
