Did you spray, roll, or brush? What would you recommend?

Thanks

I think I went through 4 cans of Rustoleum sealer, and 4 cans of Rustoleum top coat paint.

Can't remember for sure, but I think abuot 4 cans of spray. It doesn't take much.

I went through less than a quart of Rustoleum as well. I used a foam brush to apply it. Used Rustoleum primer as well(again less than a quart).

Thanks Guys. I picked up a quart of gray primer today. I didn't buy the paint because I'm not set on the color yet. If the primer looks ok, I'll probably leave it for a while.
