As with all these things, the key is in the preparation - if you take your time to make sure you've sanded the existing paint work well to provide a key, and treated any rust, the results can be fabulous.

I've also found that the thinner the paint, the better the finish, although of course you'll need a few more coats.

My experience in bodywork is limited to that of a home mechanic, i have rattled canned a few motorcycles and repaired the arches on a ford escort, beyond this my experience is none existant. I have however tried to compensate for this by asking a lot of questions, and reading many guides. Basically, if i can do this, anyone can. Equally, my driver side rear panel joint was mostly smoothed out, but perhaps i should redo this - paint really does highlight imperfections even though touch smooth! This was inspired by the roller painting links above, as well as having a white 'builders van' and not much money after spending too much on a van that barely works. This meant a pro paint job was no longer on the cards.
