I see lots of mods, and most are very handsomely painted, so I gotta ask what you guys typically use for paint on your mods projects.
I bought an old trailer from a work buddy in anticipation of getting a tractor, and started cleaning it up to make it look a little better, I picked up some rattle cans of Krylon Farm Implement paint from the local parts house, and I have to say, I'm quite impressed. Even with just one coat, after a year of sitting out in the weather, the paint is holding up quite nicely with a few exceptions where I didn't clean enough rust off. I was originally just trying to grind out the rust and just cover it up until I could get it to a proper paint shop, but now, I don't think I'll bother. The trailer's probably 40+ years old, but still got good bones, and it's a **** of a lot cheaper than a new trailer. If I can remember, I'll take a photo of the can and post it back here sometime after Xmas.
Just curiosity, more than anything else, because I'll probably stick with the Krylon. I always thought it was cheap paint, but this stuff hangs in there pretty good.
