A roller?!? If you're already spending $50 on paint and a ton of time and effort rolling it on, might as well spend another $200 and get a quick spray job done at Earl Shieb or Maaco. I'm assuming you'll spend at least 24 hours from start to finish painting, prepping, sanding, etc. At minimum wage, 24 hours * $7 per hour = $168. Add the $50 you already spent for paint, and you've already invested at least $218 into this roller paint job.

here's one i did, i went through it extensively, and am now redoing it, the paint i used turned yellow on my doorjams and behind headlights. i'm redoing it now with real car paint.

i used yacht paint which has a better shine. if you're just going to do this on the exterior it's fine, for some reason it didn't like to be covered up, so it turned yellow.

this is what i'm going with now, $1500 in supplies.
