not trying to spam for another forum, but www.rolledon.com is dedicated to this stuff, and its better organized than trying to read though thousands of posts.

My method, and everybody's it seems is different. For one, because I have a largely flat surfaced car got better results with 6" rollers. I hate sanding and don't mind rolling so I used super thin coats. Others used less coats and more sanding.

The beauty of this method is its really foolproof. The idea is to build up a solid layer of paint, then wet sand and rub it out. How you get there really doesn't matter - its the labor you put in to make it look right that matters.

Other than the application method, its the exact same procedure we used to use back in the 70's and 80's with acrylic enamel auto paint
