I wet sanded the primer pictured below and then I&#8217;ve put on 3 coats of Duplicolor paint. The paint isn&#8217;t a perfect match, it is a little yellower than the original paint. I purchased the 8 oz. Duplicolor rattle can paint at O&#8217;Reilly Auto Parts and Autozone for $7.99 a can and the 3 coats have taken almost 3 cans. I wet sanded with P1500 grit between coats. \u00a0I wanted a better paint match so I went to National Auto Body and Paint Supply in Hillyard (Spokane, WA) and purchased custom 12 oz. rattle cans for $21.95 each. Since the cans are larger that works out to about $10 more per can, but I hope it is a better color match. I don&#8217;t expect professional results but I want to stop the rust from progressing and make the van look better.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-274 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/wh1266380.ispot.cc\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"primer\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer.jpg 1665w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/169;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-274\" src=\"http:\/\/wh1266380.ispot.cc\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"primer\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/primer.jpg 1665w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-275 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/wh1266380.ispot.cc\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"3coats\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats.jpg 1583w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/169;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-275\" src=\"http:\/\/wh1266380.ispot.cc\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"3coats\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roadtrippingfun.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/3coats.jpg 1583w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The painting process is progressing slowly as I am doing it outside and the weather doesn&#8217;t always cooperate.
