So, I don't want to pay $10 for every 4oz of HoK paint, but I would like to learn how to use a spray gun with some decent, but lower cost paint. I bought a $15 Harbor Freight paint gun. It might be alright but my regulator is hissing and wasting air like crazy, so I definitely need to buy another one. I should probably also avoid Harbor Freight for that. I just want to learn how to paint with a spray gun. Then I would like to eventually buy a better gun. My current project is a first gen Playstation. I have 8oz of HoK Tangerine sitting next to me but after the experience with the white base coat, I'm going to wait before I attempt to spray that.
TLDR; What is a good brand of paint that I can learn to paint with. What are some suggestions for cheaper spray guns.
