I never saw the rustoleum automotive either. I was gonna use Rustoleum Professional grade enamel, with some mineral spirits. $26 a quart from Lowe's home improvement, but it beats buying a bunch of rattle cans for the price.
You can get a can of one coat acrylic from Napa.

If you go the Rustoleum rattle can route, skip the cold galvanized primer. Rustoleum sells a high zinc primer that goes with the reg. paint. I use them on smaller parts like roll cages, bumpers etc.

That Mopar guy painting his car with a roller is not the first.
My dear Mother, God bless her soul, once took all the
leftover house paint we had when I was just a lad.....
mixed it all together and proceeded to roller paint our old rusty
station wagon (late 60's as I recall)
The color was came out as "mauve", that color that was popular 20 years
ago. She was on the cutting edge, apparently.........
The paint held the car together for years!
