Would I be able to use this paint?

I wanted to paint my car a Gloss Navy Blue but they only have it in this type of paint. I mean if its made for a boat, than it should be able to work on a car right?

I think the initial problem with this paint is that it is a " modified alkyd ". Whereas the Brightside marine paint is a polyurathane and the Rustoleum / Tremclad shares most traits of an enamel.

Rustoleum isn't exactly the first name the rolls off the tongues of boaters when asked to name marine paints. If the boaters aren't discussing it... then that is a pretty good indication that it hasn't got wide acceptance or usage in the marine world.

One of the lads in this forum did an experiment with the Rustoleum marine paint and he found that even with careful surface preparation the paint did not get a good adhesion. It basically flaked off in patches at some point.

So I would shy away from that puppy...
