Be applied with a normal airbrush? I am not painting a car just some small metal pieces.

Can I do it with an airbrush or do I have to drop big bills on a paint gun?

i have an airbrush but iv never shot auto paint thru it

youd prolly have to add paint thinner cuz the paint has to be really fine or else itll clog your gun

yeh, I am looking into auto paint guns. Most of them are actually mad cheap. just not sure what the whole set up is gonna set me back heh.

Might take a trip to home depot and just get the whole shebangabang.

Need to keep it under $1000 though.

im guessing you have an air compressor? if so you should easily be able to keep it under $1000
just browse ebay for the best price

gordo. u pay for the paint and I can bring the tools. I will be up there this fall.

I am not terribly experienced with painting large objects though, mainly just computers and other items.
