It's going to be awhile yet before I'm going to paint anything, but I figure it couldn't hurt to start looking around. My dad works with a professional painter who paints WW2 aircraft parts. he has given me some advice but I thought I'd ask people who have painted tractors. The conventional spray gun I was looking would cost me about $50 and The compressor with enough power to work with the gun would be $460. Would one of those guns that you just plug into a extension cord, pour in some paint, and turn it on work for tractor painting? I do not want showroom quality but I do want it to look good. Being 15, money is somewhat hard to come by so I thought if I could use one of those $60 electric guns would do the trick, I'd use one of them. Would one of them be able to get under the tractor or would the paint flow back into the motor? I've seen people painting cars with them and getting good results but you don't have nooks and crannies and the underside to paint on a car. Advice anyone?
