Metal cabinets, gravity fed spray gun

I have some metal cabinets that need to be refinished. My paint gun is powered by a compressor, is gravity fed and puts out a low-pressure spray, like that used to paint cars. What kind of paint can I buy to use?

Your local supplier of automotive paints can fix you up with the proper materials to do a first-class job. Just follow their advise - no short cuts.

Jeffery:

Many thanks. I bet the cabinets turn out great.

If you want to go automotive-style and do it yourself, you might be in for a surprise at what is involved in order to get a decent paint job. I would have the job out-sourced or replace the cabinets. Save yourself a migraine.
