First let me say that I am far from an expert painter. I used spray cans for quite a while before I got my spray gun. If you want a decent paint joy at not much expense, get a good quality Alkyd enamel and a medium priced ($100 or so) HVLP gun that will work with your 5 HP compressor. If you don't have it, you will need a regulator and a filter/water trap. Also get a good respirator with carbon pack filters. Be aware if you use a hardener, you will need a fresh air mask to preserve your health. The filter mask is not adequate. Do not use the disposable paper masks. I've gotten decent results with this which will usually be better than your tractor came from the factory. If you want to go to the fancier urethane or epoxy paints, look elsewhere for advise.
