Please please keep your health safety first. Use respirators or better yet a fresh air supply. I personally would like to old school one with very thinned down paint, lots of coats, and a lot of wet sanding in between. This works well if you don't have a giant compressor. It also has the added benefit of not spraying particles all over and into the air for your neighbors to complain about you running an unlicensed spray booth. Thin down the paint, roll it on, sand every 4 or so coats until you got what you want.
