Ted, I’ve been using Richards “Signature” series, 100% acrylic int/ ext semi gloss enamel- the accent base tinted to my color choice. You have to be really careful and minimal when thinning, if you overdo it you effectively destroy the balance of carriers, pigments, and driers. I spray with an El cheapo H.F. HVLP air gun, run at about 45 P.S.I., works incredibly well for me and the gun is now several years old and has been torn completely down and cleaned up several times, a really good value for about $20.00. Like I mentioned earlier, using an inexpensive solvent based primer also helps a lot too.
