Use real paint.

My friend's rustoleum job started fading only after a year. He had like a week of sanding in it too.

Even if you do all the work yourself, consider renting a paint booth and at least using automotive paint. The lime green on my Volvo was low end Nason paint, single stage, and lasted over 7 years before starting to fade. A nice buffing brings it back but without regular work it fades in a couple of months in the AZ sun.

Is the tractor and implement paint too soft, like the roll on rustoleum?
Any tips on removing rattle can rustoleum?

I want to paint the m3 with white tractor paint so I can go hog wild with making race car livery with the vinyl cutter.
