When I was in the Air Force, I was an Inventory Management Specialist (aka 
Supply), and there was a Beetle Bailey cartoon that someone posted on one of 
the Bulletin Boards, don't know if I can find it, but here's the 
description:

First Frame:
Beetle is holding up two hammers, one of which has a price tag, showing them 
to Sarge.  He says: "Sarge, what's the difference between this $450 Army 
hammer and this other one I found at the hardware store for $20?

Second Frame:
Sarge is shown hammering, with a dozen little "taps" around the nail:  He 
Says: "Well, Beetle, here's the thing.  Your little hammer takes a lot of 
work to drive the nail in."

Third Frame:
Sarge is shown hammering, with one large "WHAM" on the nail: He Says: "With 
the Army Hammer, all it taks is one hit!"

Fourth Frame:
Sarge is seen walking away with Otto (his dog), Beetle has this "Duh" look 
on his face.

So, Pete, in answer to your question, could that be the answer?  It takes 
several LIGHT coats of Krylon rust proofing paint and one HEAVY coat of 
Eastwood's?

Tongue firmly in cheek.....
