Officially hate Rustoleum - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Painting new wheels for my 72, gloss white of course. Used Gloss White Rustoleum, for one, it took forever to dry between coats, then when it finally dried to left a rough finish, so I lightly sanded it with 1000 grit paper and tried putting another coat of paint on it only for it to react with the "dry" coat under it and started to crackle... ugh, something simple turned into a big mess, stripping all the new paint off and will try again with Krylon or something else.

Any suggestions short of powdercoat?
