You need to get to a meet, like Mike says. A question like this can be answered on this board...to an extent. The BEST way, though is to go have someone SHOW you what you need to know. You can ask all your questions and someone there can help you out. And you get to see what others do, how they charge, what kind of brushes, etc....
GET TO A MEET! You won't be sorry!
If there is one in your area, get there. OR travel to new places, far away and write it off as a business expense! [Wink]

This is coming up a lot lately - Curtis, we just finished a mural using One-Shot on Alumalite, cleared with ClearStar semi-gloss. Worked great.

For painting on concrete or brick, however, I prefer latex......

What Sonny said . . . .

Adding Smith's Cream for blending oil paints for pictorial work is the only extra advice.

John Hannukaine has written some articles in SignCraft on bike murals done with OneShot. There is also a section in his pinstriping book on the same subject. This book is available from SignCraft too. If you can crank out murals it will seperate you from the stripers that don't.
