Rustoleum is my first choice and Duplicolor is my second and I almost always use the spray.

I did the OD green thing on an XJ.. with the Krylon Ultra-Flat Olive Green. Stock number 8143.

I really wasn't too thrilled with the way it turned out. It ended up very rough looking. But I didn't do enough prep work. Took about 8 cans to finish it.
