Anyone ever do a spray can paint on vehicle

Rattle can paint will look real bad in about a year.

The work is in the prep. Prep it right and use acrylic enamel with hardener. Same work, will last for years.
 
I've done my bumpers and wheels with plasti dip. It doesn't look great, but its at least one color now. Both had soo much trail rash that I was showing thru the original paint. Works for me, but you can't care to much about appearances.
 
Roller is the way to go.

Had an old VW bug overseas in Germany that I painted with cans, in fact would paint it about every other week if I found a can of paint. Yep it looked like crap.
 
My buddy plastidipped his Toyota Tundra a few years ago and it looked pretty good. I wish I had pictures.
I think he said he had about $300 in the thing, including an electric spray gun.
 
I got to be pretty good at it. I would go to a shopping mall or Walmart and practice on cars in the parking lot.
Never did a whole car just one side.
