Spray Gun Paint

What do I need to paint a car?

I'm thinking about getting into car painting. I can paint really well with a spray can and would like to try with a soray gun. What equipment do I need to paint a car? spray gun, paint etc.. everything i would need.
what size of air compressor would i need? how many HP? whats the average price for one?

First of all your going to need a pretty good air compressor.
Then you're going to need a gun(if you can afford it get an hvlp type), a resparator(depending on what kind of paint and where your spraying), drop cloths, masking tape, and of course paint, primer and laquer thinnner.

But probably the thing you will need most is practice, practice, practice, I would search around on the internet for sights about automotive painting also you can try the library and I have found that lots of local paint shops will give you advice for free. The way I learned was asking questoins and trying until I figured it out.

Hope this helps and good luck painting!!
