Default paint

Im getting a rc boat this weekend and I want to paint it green. Is there any good place to order the right paint I need? Any steps besides sanding and painting?
Link appreciated.
Thanks

Your cheaper to use NASON paints,That's Duponts bugetline. Or NAPA's Crossfire system. I know for a fact that they dont charge 42 dollars for a quart!!![X(] Try 25-30,dependes on the lime green? Plus yopu can get that color in pints and half pints too. I use base coat clear coat urothanes paints on my boat!! Last longer and give you a show room finish too!!! If you need any painting tips and help? I can help you. I paint cars,truck,bikes and boats for aliving.[8D]
