I'm with Dean-

My Sprite will never be smooth and flawless, but the Rustoleum solution is
working for me.

As soon as the weather dries out for a while I'll be putting on the final
coat.  Yes, the sponge brush paint job posted online works.  No, I won't be
showing it.

What are you people talking about?

Four quarts of Rustoleum "Antique White" only cost about $50.
That, and the HLVP gun I picked up at BigLots for $25.

You might laugh. But I'm pleased with the results.

If I was to do it over again I probably would have gone with 
Duplicolors DIY solution - with the clearcoat.  I understand
that it is very forgiving,

But then I would not have achieved the proper oil alkyd, Old English White
color:)
