Summit has a separate catalog just for auto body and paint. The main catalog does not list everything they have in this category.
Shopping on line is an option, but mostly if you already know exactly what you need. Beware of some of the sales help, ask for someone with real world experience who has done this themselves. I try to be nice, but firm about who I want to talk to.

MJD, I thought it was pretty amusing to hear that someone even tried mixing that concoction up...! I've got some Rustoleum and some urethane catalyst...hmmm.

I'd be afraid to run it through a gun. With a factory engineered paint system, if you don't follow the instructions to the Nth degree, you'll run into problems like solvent popping or peeling. With a "Home Brewed" system of random ingredients, either the "inventor" really knows his stuff or is just very lucky.
