I actually managed to stay pretty paint free for a change. The firewall was painted with rattle-can paint from Tower Paint. They can mix just about any automotive color for old cars for about $14 a car. Same stuff I used on my rims.

So when I get the rattle cans, I turned a couple of them upside down and put a brick on them and let all the propellant out. Then I stab a hole in the can, and pour all the paint it into my HVLP spraygun. Then I can control the pattern and volume better and it goes on without tiger stripes.
