So if your paying $25-30 a gallon for Rustoleum and you can purchase Acrylic Urethane for $30 a gallon and $15 for the activator, where is the big savings? The boat paint your favoring is actually the highest price...

...and remember, the robot was always right! Chuck



Actually the polyurathane ( Brightside ) can average $35 a quart... ( or on ebay about $35 for two gallons )...

The Brightside is the one stage polyurathane... and it is cheaper than the two stage polyurathane called Perfection. So no... Brightside is not the more expensive paint.

But what makes it more RELEVANT to this discussion is that it is purposely designed TO BE ROLLED with a 4" roller. The automotive paint that you are buying is PURPOSELY designed to be SPRAYED.

Now that is not to say that your automotive paint could not be rolled... its just that it falls into the same category as saying that honey is purposely designed to be eaten... but that it is possible to roll it too...
