I have never sprayed automotive paint but have done other types of spraying. I bought it on promotion and got an extra $350 gun free. Maybe I should use one just for primer and the like and the other for base and clear? I bought 3 needle and cap sets for primer, base and clear. I have no idea how much paint to mix up if anyone could help. All I'm painting is the transmission and a water pump. This paint is expensive and I don't want to waste it. How long do I have to use it before it goes bad or off or whatever it does? Thank you for your time.

I'm going to recommend a great website for super paint products (especially their clears) and tech advice:
http://www.spiuserforum.com/index.ph...-5000-5100.29/
The guys that typically answer the questions are a bunch of pros, and the owner of the company (Barry) is accessible and helpful as well. Very personable folks.
