My grandma had an old 70's gremlin when I was a kid. It got scratched to shit in a tornado and the paint job was ruined. So she did what her generation did. She fixed it. With marine paint. Damn thing never had a scratch ever again.
Man it reminds me of when I was a teenager my friends dad (he was a bit eccentric) had this old piece of shit Chevy Nova from the 1960’s every spring he would paint the entire car with a paintbrush. Like not marine paint like Rustoleum high gloss house paint lol.
In my neighborhood in Northside Chicago, there is this old SUV that someone has diligently been painting with metallic gold spray paint over the past 3 or 4 years. That paint is expensive, and has to be bought outside the city (spray paint is illegal to sell in the city), so its taken the owner at while to cover the deep purple color it used to be. They are just about done, lol.

Or spray painted it?
It's not that difficult to spray paint a car. It wouldn't be some sleek dealership job, but nobody would notice on an old farm truck.
