to paint make sure you use quality materials and a good Space and gun. paint is something you don't want to do twice.

haha dousan definitely can vouch for that. LOL after his first coat of red on his car.

You should sell your paint gun and buy three rolls of vinyl.

Ive used this for primers and for single-stage flatz with pretty good results.

Id suggest this kit if looking to paint urself

I got this one on sale for $15 and was happy with the results of my single stage acrylic paint job. It worked fine when I shot some clear on it as well. Layered on the paint then took a good bit back off. I'm sure if you were a pro then the goal would be to do it right out of the box to where you didn't spend hours detailing it out but it worked fine.
