Applied with a very large paintbrush, broadside on.
I did that years ago with a 1936 Ford. When I brought it home, it was about 10 different colors of primer and paint. My landlord, who lived next door made a few comments about it so I went to K Mart and bought a gallon of black exterior house paint and had at it. Shut the landlord up and didn't look 1/2 bad from a distance. A few years later when I sold it, I followed the towtruck up the road and watched as sheets of paint peeled off.
