Thank you for the compliments. Hemmings has made it this far without me, so I'll let them be. I spray primer with the cheapest siphon spray can that I can find, and it works out just fine. They're all metal, and I'm suspicious of the stuff that has plastic jugs and whatnot. I bought a HVLP gun, again a cheap one, the other day and will try it out. I think it was $75, and that wasn't so cheap although I know that some of the nice ones go for $250. I just don't paint enough things to justify or even know the difference. I do try to keep the primer and the paint stuff seperate. The primer has solids and I'd hate to be spraying paint and have a primer booger come out in the process of a paint job, regardless of whether that's a real possibility or not... I buy cheap stuff from Harbor Freight and 7 times out of 10 it's just fine. If I wear something out or think there's an advantage to moving up, I do that. The sanders they sell in particular are maybe 50% the cost of other ones and seem to go forever if oiled properly.
