In pictures I've seen of this process of paint rolling the vehicles looked pretty good.

Question: Why Rustoleum over Tremclad - or vice versa? which holds up longest? And what might be the lifetime before having to repaint.

Vanagons have a slot of surface area - meaning a lot of elbow grease would be used up in finishing a paint job oneself, so it's not something one would care to have to do often.

So, I would just like to know about this.

Thanks.

I'd love to see some real-world pics on bays or vanagons, since summer is coming and I have at least 4 Vw's that might need a paintjob. :-) > Courtney > > >
