Actually he used regular tremclad off-the-shelf paint, heavily thinned with
mineral spirits. I don't think there IS a Tremclad/Rustoleum  automotive
paint line.

Might just be something with the white. The guy said he painted his 74
Beetle with orange Tremclad and, five years later, had to replace a fender
and paint it to match. He says the new fender color was a dead-on mach,
right off the shelf, and he'd give $100 to anyone who could figure out which
fender it was based on the color. So I guess YMMV.
