Hey ACF.


As far as spray cans, there are at least 3 companies i recommend. Spazstix, Pactra, and Tamiya. They are all great companies. One thing to remember when you paint is paint in thin layers. I like to start with a very thin coat to start. Also called a "tac" coat. This lets the rest of the coats stick to the body. Then keep adding thin coats until the desired coverage. Remember, take your time. Even with one color with spray cans, you should give yourself at least half an hour to complete everything. If you ahve more question, there is a plethora of answers at [link=http://www.cfxpaintworks.com]CFX[/link]
