White semigloss paint appears in my finishing purchases alongside the other coatings collected for the project.
The featured Amazon option is Rust-Oleum Semigloss White Brush-On Paint.
Where it fits my build
I marked the opening beneath the passenger seat and used a drill, reciprocating saw and grinder to make it. I then drilled the mounting holes and sanded the cut area.
The finishing sequence included two coats of primer and two coats of white paint. That put the cutting, abrasive preparation and coating into distinct steps before the heater mounting continued.

My build notes
The opening changed from marked sheet metal to a cut edge and then to a painted mounting area. The sequence in the photos explains the role of the finishing supplies alongside the cutting tools.
Cutting the opening was followed by abrasive preparation and coating before assembly continued.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
Rust-Oleum's semigloss white is a brush-on option. BEHR provides a satin exterior paint, while the Heirloom White quart changes both the shade and the sheen.
BEHR Ultra Pure White Satin Exterior Paint
This white exterior paint provides a satin-finish coating. It is applied as a liquid topcoat during painting and refinishing work.
