    I've done this on some commercial vehilces, it's not bad looking from about 30 feet. It does make for a lot of orange peel.If you have to do it that way, get a good lint free roller.

    Foam rollers are the best for roller applications. They leave no lint and less texture too.

    Not to shabby though. I paint M-715's for free. You do the body and prep. work. Deliver it and I'll paint it. Just ask Binford. I've finished two now. Ready for my third. Almost ready Dan. Who's next.

    Have you been keeping that a secret Fisherman? Dang, I sure wish you were in my area, as that sounds like a good deal. How many standard colors do you offer?

    I used a brush on my last truck. I thinned the paint about 30% brushed it on and let it set until tacky. I then sprayed a light coat of reducer over areas that showed brush marks. Did not look to bad. Of course heavy brushed stroked od green would look better than nicely shot yellow any day.

    If you paint it with flat od like 34079 even with the orange peel it will look like it just it was done at maintence depot.
