My brother recently got a catalog from Fastenal and noticed there was a semi-gloss acrylic enamel that is DTM and water based available from Rustoleum. This is the 5200 series paint and you can buy a hardener for it. It has chemical and solvent resistance so I wonder if it could be an economical but quality paint for chassis work since it is available in a semi-gloss.
At $58 a gallon it certainly has the price. I know guys have been using fish oil based semi gloss for chassis, but I experimented and found it to be soft and easy to mark with my fingernail after is set for a few weeks.
So does anyone have experience with the Rustoleum 5200 paint and the hardener? How good is the paint?
