The equivalent here I think is the Wattle Rustkill series.

Are you going to use the paint-roller technique!I've read about that with interest through google.Look forward to seeing some pix when you have finished, make sure you post on here if you try that out.Cheers

I used killrust on a fire escape as per requirement, it goes as hard as hell but is basicly an enamal. If you paint it and it runs or whatever I think redoing to soon would result in fry ups and so forth. Its about 40 or 50 bucks a ltr and comes in red yellow green and some other drab colours. personally I wouldnt touch a car with it.

People are selling left over paint here for good prices - check it. Also go to auto paint places and you may be able to get a mis match cheaply. I did that to paint my Mazda (undercoat/topcoat sprayed) for under $200. Spraying - even a panel at a time is better than all the work of roller (and yes I've seen youtube vids of it done).
4ltrs Dulux High Gloss super enamel, 4ltrs 91 petrol (the thinners), a good spray gun and a high volume compressor.Done this a few times with great results

I can get Rustoleum here where I live from my local paint shop. Good stuff but haven't used it on a cars bodywork before, though I have a couple of cans the exact colour match of my Mercedes hubcaps (the inside .side) of which I intend restoring and having a set of caps as spares. I've already done the ones on the car after they were re chromed & painted as with original factory colour coded caps, wouldn't know them from new ones. It's recommended by Mercedes restoration chaps in USA for that purpose.that's where I got the idea from.

Better to use the correct thinners.

Santano do an excellent spraying enamel at a far better price than Dulux.
