That looks great. What paint is that?

Rustoleum Stops Rust in Gloss Orange​

I like it. Is that one of the new cans with the 5-way nozzle? Been wondering about those.

I like it.

Thanks! It came out a nice bright orange.​

Nope, just the standard large nozzle that comes on the Stops Rust and Automotive Primer. I keep the caps from the cans when they are used up. I'm amassing quite a stash.​

​

Folks talk about having issues with Rustoleum... I have yet to experience any issues with their Stops Rust or Automotive Primer. Only had (1) nozzle plug up, and had plenty on hand as a substitute​

I've certainly had consistently great results with the Stops Rust Metallics. I might just try the Stops Rust for my next can of regular paint instead of the 2x (although I've mostly had decent results with the 2x as well). Color selection is not as good as the 2x but the basics are all there.

Orange Paint

I spent about an hour of masking.... and then painted the orange in about 5 minutes. Came out pretty nice, just a little touch up of the white will be needed.​
