Mini HVLP Spray Gun!!!! I spent two weekends painting my machine using spray cans from Lowes. I lost count of how many cans of primer and white paint I used. I've since purchased a mini HLVP spray gun and have to say it's worth every penny and the results are much better! I would venture to say that using the HVLP gun I could have painted everything in a matter of hours versus days, and when I say it's worth every penny, I don't mean to make it sound expensive. I purchased a two gun kit from Grizzly for less money than I paid for all the cans of paint!
Well their you have it, my one thing! Oh did I mention I hate to paint...
