Yeah that's the stuff. Google 'rustoleum paint job' and it'll give you all the details. I painted my girlfriend's bike using this method - with proper wetsanding and polishing it looked better (smoother and glossier) than a solid-colour powdercoat and it seemed to hold up just as well (until she decided she wanted it a different colour, then I got it powdercoated as I couldn't be bothered to do it again).
One thing I would say is that it'll take a while to dry (unless we have an Indian summer).
