Yeah spray painting may not be the best looking or most durable finish, but my roof got a few rust spots, so I had to touch them up. The clear coat is peeling hardcore (1988 XJ) Its burgandy, and I want to paint the roof black, because I can't find any spray paint to match the stock burgandy color.
My thoughts were to use Krylon Gloss Black, but I am debating whether to primer the whole roof, or just where the rust spots were cleaned up. Anybody have any suggestions on better paint? I'm not lookin at spending too much money, but I dont want it to come up right away either.
Last question, What is the best way to get the flaky clear coat off the roof? I would like to keep as much factory paint as I can on there, because that stuff is baked on, so i'm guessing it is going to protect better than just spray paint. Wet sand? 1000 grit? Something rougher? On about 1/3 of the roof, I can scratch the clear with my finger nails...
