" Even if I do decide to attempt to shoot it myself, I'm still wondering

about HVLP turbines vs an HVLP gun and a standard compressor (which I
already have...2-stage, 60 gal)."

I painted my car with one of the cheap self contained turbine HVLP guns
from Harbor freight. I used acrylic urethane and wet sanded the runs
till they disappeared. Lots of people who see it ask what shop painted
it because it looks so nice. Pictures here: www.CurtFisherRacing.com
