  73 year old diy female here, I followed your directions on the damaged hood and roof of my black 2007 Jeep Liberty. It looks like a new car! I can&apos;t say thank you enough for the clear step by step instructions!!!

  In a time where most people would buy or finance a new car and then sleepwalk into debt, It&apos;s nice to see someone else using ingenuity and simply fixing the problem, Good work!

  As a painter at a body shop,I give y&apos;all a ten! That&apos;s called getting your monies worth! Living in a small town I seen some farmers do this to like big farm trucks and they looked fairly good but you guys nailed it. Macco ain&apos;t got nothing on you!

  IN 1958 I watched my dad paint his 1940 Ford with a brush and tractor paint. That paint leveled so well you could not see brush strokes when it was done.

  I remember first seeing this method several years ago in Hot Rod magazine. They rolled on white rustoleum, let dry, and then sanded each coat. It took a few days but it came out good and cost about $100.

  I have an 03 Silverado crew cab. It has the cancer. I’ve been painting it with rustoleum for 12 years. I give it fresh coat every couple years. The paint is literally holding the truck together now.

  I brush-painted my first car back in 1969. I used oil based gloss porch and deck enamel custom mixed at Ace Hardware. The color I used was called Peacock Blue! It was an improvement for a $100 car!

  I used the red oxide paint with a roller on my old truck and it came out great. It’s easy to touch up and lasts a long time. The local shops wanted $10,000 to $15,000 for a paint job. They’re out of their minds!

  I have a 21 yr old F150 and my roof looked like yours, &nbsp;I tried spray can paint and realized I’ll need about 20 cans. &nbsp;So I bought a quart of rust oleum hi gloss white exterior oil base paint and brushed it on nice and thick, you would not believe how well it looks. &nbsp;It’s not picture perfect but it made me happy. &nbsp;And because it’s the roof only a helicopter can see the blemishes….lol. &nbsp;So thumbs up to you guys for making this video.
