I rustoleum painted my truck about 7 years ago. At that time it was a lot of different colors. I wanted it one color. I did not do much prep work like wash, wipe, or tack cloth it down. It was painted with full strength rustoleum from the can using a lot of the small rollers. At the time I wanted it covered and one color. It has not flaked or had the paint peal off. It stays outside in our Dallas, Texas heat and cold. I use it for what it is. A truck. It still looks good.
A $50 paint job will give you a good looking truck for 15-20 feet away.
