    Would a kit like this one be a good thing to start out with:

    ive bought acrylic enamal paint from them for some mud machines we use for 4x4'n around here & it didnt seem like a bad product..sprayed ok but the actual colors are off from the photo's in the websites..also it took at a minimum of 3 weeks to receive the paints & there is no tech sheets on their paints..but..it is a cheep paint for someone looking to start learning..wont have to worry about losing much money

    here is a ranger i painted outside with the dark mettalic blue from them for a freinds son's first truck..actualy came out nice & didnt even get any dust or bugs in it since we painted mid day when the bugs were down..one thing i did notice is it took the whole gallon for color coverage & was using a devilbiss finishline III with a 1.4 tip,make sure you use the hardener or it will take a few weeks to get hard..also..the metallic paint they have is so fine you dont even notice its metallic,better off buyin a solid & adding your own metallic in the paint..good luck on the first paint job!..i know how you feel..excited!
