for those smaller jobs, my local napa-like store, will custom mix me paint in an aerosol can for almost this purpose, they do have the Firebird red in thier mix system
Nice option to have...;-)
I am really digging this air brush kit. Best $20 I've spent in some time....maybe other than the $16 paint gun I bought, have done all the primer work with it. Made easy work of the trunk hinges...
