Excellent result! That takes care of the rust and didn't cost an arm and a leg.

Looks great! I used to be a professional body man back in the early 80's to the 90's before I started factory work. And to this day the slickest paintjob I ever did without cutting and buffing was on a 72 charger outside beside our tobacco barn when I was 19 years old. I used a Binks model no.7 back then and loved that old gun. My Dad still says to this day one of the slickest jobs he ever seen was on a 52 chevy by his neighbor who used a old pump bug sprayer! Sometimes the less pains you take the better the paint!😊👍

I knew a guy who painted his old Dodge Dart primer gray with a paint brush, I can say that your paint job turned out way better.

Sprayway glass cleaner before painting is a good idea for cleaning and prepping surfaces. It's a non-ammonia, alcohol-free option that can remove wax, grease, and other contaminants that may interfere with paint adhesion. While some might use isopropyl alcohol or other solvents like acetone, Sprayway is often preferred for its streak-free cleaning and safety and it's a whole lot cheaper , now you need an extremely large Mopar sticker to go on that roof looks good brother

That’s a great idea you should use a paint roller if you can’t do a spray paint job
