Rustoleum Hammered paint!

I decided that since I have my mirrors off my bus in preparation for painting it this weekend, that I'd go ahead and get the mirrors painted. The metal on my mirrors was faded with a little rust. So, I bought a can of that Rustoleum Hammered paint in black. I'm very impressed with it! The paint dries really quickly and it looks fantastic! You can apply it directly over rust too! It has a nice hammered metal look to it too! I'll post some pics when it's daylight. I might even paint my wheels with this stuff too!

Re: Rustoleum Hammered paint!

I just picked up a 2wd Tracker for a Toad, The carpet was nasty. I pulled it all out and painted the whole inside of the tub with black hammered rustoleum. Looks great. I love the stuff. I'll be using more of it on the new bus.

Re: Rustoleum Hammered paint!

Sorry! I've been TDY away from home and the bus since the beginning of May. My wife has been looking after the bus for me. I'll see if she'll take some pictures of the wheels next time she goes over to crank the bus. I'll be back home at the end of August and I'm really going to start tearing into this thing! I can't wait.

My wife promised me that she would go over tomorrow and crank my bus and take some pictures of the wheels for me. I'll get them up tomorrow night hopefully!

Re: Rustoleum Hammered paint!

Well my wife went over to start my bus and forgot her camera. It's like pulling teeth to get her to go over there in the first place. I'll be home for a few days at the end of the month. I'll just take some pictures myself then. Sorry.

Re: Rustoleum Hammered paint!

Here's a picture of the floor in my Tracker. This is the Rustoleum hammered finish in black. Took me all of about 3 min. to do this, sorry I procrastinated so long.
