Yea, I've been kinda looking into this. I know someone with a paint booth, been thinking of removing the dents off my car and painting it. of course, the old rustoleum for now.... But, sprayed on with an air gun ( you can buy it by the quart for $6 lol)

go to your local parts supplier stores(smythe, not sure about autozone) and ask them about distributors for standox, spies hecker(same thing as standox), dupont, or sherman williams(never messed with it but a guy i work with said it sprays real good and its a bit thicker than standox or dupont so it fills in sand scratches better. just remember, prepping the car correctly is just as important as spraying the car.

don't use rusto if you plan on painting the car again. it contains fish oil, for rust proofing, that will make any paint sprayed afterwards almost dissolve. i would use a quart of krylon's bbq/hi-temp paint if you want a flat black look. kinda hard to find though.
here's a pic of one shot with the krylon/spray gun method.

it's on imagestation, so if it doesnt show up, right click prop, copy, paste.
