More info is probably needed.
* Are you spraying it yourself and have you sprayed a car before! * What sort of gun and compressor do you have! * Metallic or Non-Metallic * Exact colour match required or just red, black, blue etc! * Any preference with regard to 2 Pack, Acrylic etc! * What pain is on the car now and are you taking it back to bare metal or just rubbing it down!

well it's just more like rubbing a little bit of those and will use 250HP compressor.It's a black color, metallic and I'll spray it myself (DIY). ~As i inquire it'll cost 1500-2000 NZD witch is not practical so I may try by myself tough and might get cheap cost. Thanks for the reply

Dont waste your money , any metalic takes skill to doright . , do the prep work yourself but get a pro to paint it . There isnt any "cheap "car paintits all around$90 +a litreplusprimers plus thinners.$1500 is cheap,If you cock it up you have wait weeks for it to harden then resand & do it againif painter does it it has to be right . . False economy

Spary cans work a treat if your painting a hole car, just ask Iron_maiden

90% of a good paint job is in the prep, If OP cocks that up doesn't matter who paints it.
