I HATE TO PAINT!!!!

Now having said that, last year I bought a top loading spray gun. A Dilvibis
(sp)
for $95 on sale. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!!!! This particluar one used a plastic
bag for the paint inside the alu pot. I had only planned to paint the deuce,
but it
was SOO much nicer with this gun that I painted the Chev Bomb Truck, the
Bomb
Trailer and the Water Buffalo!
