Thanks! It's Valspar latex enamel, #60073 Satin Black. I thinned it with Floetrol to make it sprayable. One quart was enough to do top and bottom. The boards came pre-sanded, we only spent 15 minutes with 180 grit on a DA sander before shooting a couple coats of paint.

What ratio Floetrol did you mix with?

1 part paint and "enough" parts Floetrol... I just eyballed it and kept mixing it in until I felt it was thin enough to spray.
