[purple gas]

I bought a cheap small touch up gun $15 ( 8 oz cup ) and a gallon of Fire red Tremclad $ 35.( Canadian rustolium ) a $10 preasure regulator and have a small compressor. I thinned the tremclad 20% with mineral spirits and shot my truck. It's no show car, but it looks pretty good. My whole set up was cheaper than what it would take in rattle cans, and the little spray gun worked pretty good. rattle cans tend to spurt & spatter when they run out. It's not gonna last forever but there's no spatters, runs, etc. And it's all the same color. It did take couple days for the paint to really harden up, but it was last fall and pretty cool at the time.. . And I learned a lot about spraying with a real ( tho cheap ) spray gun. Good luck whatever you choose.
