Since enviromental concerns caused changes to oil based paint, I have switched to "automotive" paint. Is it easy to work with-no. I would not try to brush it on. Is it durable -yes, easy to clean-yes. Cheap-no. In NYS oil based paint can only be purchased in quarts or smaller, gallons will only be sold until invantories are depleted. I have never seen mildew form on an auto, have you? Some of the epoxy primers developed for the automotive industry defy description. I am sure that the large market is responsible for the excellent products available. Prime and finish coats all in the same day. Masking and covering can be a problem, especially inside. I really dislike painting and the fact that I can complete in one day (after prep) is very appealing
