Honestly, I would rather see people driving around with semi-decent Macco/1-day paint jobs instead of the crappy rattle canned piles of shit I see on a daily basis.

Hell, another CHEAPER alternative is doing it yourself with a single-stage paint.

They sell 3M "scotch" pads. Scuff up your entire car with it so the paint can stick, mask/remove shit you don't want painted, and shoot.

Borrow a compressor, buy a cheap harbor freight gun, spend around $140 in prep/paint materials, and have a go at it.

It won't be perfect, but it definitely beats the rattle canned bullshit.
