Traditionally Polane was used. (Sherwin Williams)
Raptor is similar. I had a long discussion with their rep along the
lines of "ok, but how much is the paint and how much is the application".
It turns out it's a bit of both.
Obviously you're not going to get texture with a very high pressure
applicator.

I must have asked numerous times on numerous forums
how this is done. Did
you ever take a close look at the paint on a 5150 or 5170 (or hell even any
IBM monitors that are age appropriate, but those aren't metal). Did you
notive the wormy, orange pealy finish. I don't think anyone has seriously
attempted to explain how to accomplish that. It's not simply a sligjtly
gritty texture as in the case of modern atx cases, that can be done with a
spray can, sort of.
Do they simply cause the spray gun to spit on the final coat, perhaps
while the previous coat is still tacky?
