I got a $9 spray gun from HF and tried it out on the control arms, spindle, and frame and it worked pretty well.
I completely destroyed the paint can I got from Home Depot that was holding the rest of my Chassis Saver paint. I could not get another one on a Sunday because the closest one is in Bergen County NJ and they are closed by law on Sundays, and I was not going to sit in Sunday traffic to get a $3 paint can.
The specs for Chassis Saver say to keep it in metal. Well, I poured the leftover paint in an empty soup container from the Chinese restaurant. We will see how well it holds up. I should probably go check on it.

careful when you open it...i put mine in a cheap container and it built up a lot of pressure. When i opened the lid, it blew off across the garage..
