Is bituminous paint a type of enamel paint?

Enamel paint is basically a type of oil based paint. It can be defined as a semi or high-gloss paint that levels out all by itself. You spread it evenly with a brush, and then the strokes vanish; it forms an enamel surface. It works superlatively on a distinctive primer that equalizes the surface.
