Looks like a car I once had that was painted with a broom. Except the car
was lime green. A 1956 Simca, IIRC. Not a bad little car, too. I'd like to
have it back

Chap I worked with painted his car (sitting in the sun) with rattle
cans one HOT Saturday afternoon. Perfectly beautiful orange peel
effect.

I painted my first car with spray bombs. Looked beautiful, had to hit it every couple
weeks with rubbing compound to deal with the oxidized look that developed. Oh well, 16,
young and dumb.

Buddy got a couple of cans of Copper color to spray behind the grill of his
50 Ford Coupe. Was mismarked color as was silver. One of us, not me,
standing around the car sprayed the roof. Looked good. We went and got
some more cans and sprayed the whole car crome silver. CHP told owner to
keep it off the road until it dimmed down. Sunny day and was blinding all
the other drivers. Was like a mirror for about 2 weeks. Back about 1961.
