Default Where to order paint?

Its time to lay some paint on my Honcho but I'm not sure who to order my paint from and what else do i need for prep?

I just want to lay some decent paint but I'm not going crazy with it.
I want to paint the cab a darker blue like the new Tacoma color and chrome for the diamond plate on the bed. any links would be appreciated thanks

Few questions.... u wanting to air brush it or rattle can?

Maybe your LHS would have paint?

When i prep lexan bodies i just wash them real good with dawn dish soap and warm water, dry, mask and spray away

Every paint work ive done has turned out great using that method

you can order the anodized candy blue and chrome from Spazstix.com with the 25%discount codes in my signature below. There are also tips and tricks to painting the chrome on his site. you can get the blue, chrome, black or white backer, the backer clear coat to put on the chrome before you spray the base coat on so it stays chrome plus a prep spray all from him.

Use JWALKER for the 25%off products
JWALKERSHIPPING for 25%off shipping cost.

If you do rattle can a lexan or poly-carbonate, just be sure to get Lacquer and not enamel. Enamel is for hardbody and plastic models and doesn't bond to lexan or poly-carbonate bodies. But you might now that. I am just saying cause the closest place for me to get paint is online ordering. The Michaels and HobbyLobby types only carry the enamel paints.
