You're MUCH better off getting rattle cans from an automotive paint/body shop supply store. The paint is better and so are the nozzles. They have a wider more even spray pattern that will be especially helpful if you're just learning how. Hardware store stuff just shoots the paint out, its garbage.
A proper store can also hook you up with a primer that has an ahesion promoter if necessary as well as a flex agent - the latter being more important. You can just tell them what you are spraying and they will get you the rifpght stuff.
Plus you can get the actual paint code instead of whatever generic black you have to choose from on the shelf.
Best part is it's usually the same or less money to buy the better stuff. No excuse for crud.
