i'm considering investing in a proper spray gun and compressor etc, as i always seem to be spray painting with crappy cans. I have quite a bit of experience with paint and colour matching etc as i'm an illustrator and was wondering if anyone could recommend a route to take? I'd want to be able to spray whole panels to as high standard as possible, but don't want to spend a ridiculous amount on it. I can use a conservatory room in my house as a small vented booth area too.
Ive got a local paint firm who supply very good auto paint to any colours in tins as well.
i was also thinking if i did do this i could provide cheap panel respraying to mates and fellow rocco owners!

Re: spray guns
Wait for the next Aldi Air Tools sale. The compressors are pretty powerful and dirt cheap for the hobbyist. Saying that i have not used mine yet, as i am painting the Imp in white as a practice before i tackle the Rocco, but it gets good reports.
