Materials & Supplies Needed:

(1) Rustoleum Protective Enamel 2-4 quarts

(2) One gallon 100% Mineral Spirits

(3) Sandpaper of fine grits  320 - 400  -- 600 - 800 -- 1000  - 1500.

(4) High Quality Blue Painter's Masking Tape

(5) 4" Ultra Dense White Roller Foam and Paint Roller

(6) Small Foam Brush

(7) Tack cloth, sitr sticks, rags, drop cloth,

other materials around the house, screwdriver, wrench,

bucket, spray bottle.

(8) Gloves, dust mask, safety goggles

(9) Bondo, if needed.

(  and ( Rustoleum

paint isn't really very particular, it will cover even 100

grit scratches with enough coats, but it won't do body work. 

It won't level out major low spots & high spots.

I tried with many Rustoleum coats, and it didn't work.  

I finally sanded all the paint away, and the bondo

worked nicely.)

This gallon of 100% mineral spirits was on clearance

for $1.00 at Sears.
