go to a local auto body supply store and buy all PPG products.. theyre the best I love PPG.

and you need the right reducer/hardner for the temperature and humidity for where you are. its all about the solvents my friend.
you cant just like get one kind that worked for one guy in connecticut full of humidity and colder.. and expect it to look the same in arizona where its dry as hell and usper hot.

Also, I would suggest single stage if your looking for a cheaper way out of buying hundreds of dollars worth of paint. Although if your firend owns a booth then im guessing he owns a body shop so he can get you shit for cheap probably.
