Automotive repair paint?
I've got a few parts I'd like to paint, but I know nothing about paint brands nor how to go about getting a batch mixed up. I have access to a booth and all the gear (I'm taking an adult ed bodyshop class) so applying the paint in a decent environment won't be a problem.
So, are there any brands that people recommend, ideally for ease of use and modest price? I'm not trying to be cheap but I know Subaru factory paint isn't too hot to begin with. Likewise is this something that can be bought easily online or am I better off finding a local shop? Thanks.

if you are looking for cheap, and are still in an area that hasn't changed to waterborne paints, I suggest Duponts budget line of Nason. They are much cheaper, but limited in colors.
