hope your not thinking of spray cans mate, you need a compressor, tbh you may be better to hire out a spraybooth for the day, any dust that settles on the paint in a garage or summit is going to look shit

if your a perfectionist i wouldnt bother with the kit at all, really tacky imo

id personally get the body shop do it :y: but if you really must do your self use a compresor and do it properly :y:

a booth cosist of fans and water under the floors mate helps keep dust to a minimum, you will still get dust in a home made booth

wont be much to hire one for a day tbh

if im goin to hire one i may aswell jus get them to spray it but do the prep work might jus prime it ready for them. ive been qouted 400 to spray arches skirts and bumpers but jus fancy trying a bit of it myself is prep work fairly easy because if its fully preped spraying will be no were near as much will it
