any hardware store or local DIY center, its called rustoleum acrylic enamel in the U.S. and it works pretty well, it has self levelers in it to so after you roll it on wait about a minute and its almost glass like, well if you prep right

you dont have to, since it is acrylic enamel. but you better keep it waxed. ive sprayed auto grade paint like this before but i thought id try something easier. im having probs with tiny bubbles in the paint. im using a 4" foam roller i might try another brand of roller or something.

if your getting bubbles yo might have shook the can or mixed it to hard, you dont need to have it shooken lioke house paint or you'll get those bubbles for a week or so and there a pain in the ***. also if you still have bubbles when you roll it out let it dry for about a minute then go back over the paint with JUST the weight of the brush and it'll get red of that
