I did a ton of reaserch, and in the end i decided on a lesser-known brand called "mortons truck guard" IMHO, it was a fantastic balance between price, style and durability. The manufactures application instructions called for the use of a schultz gun. But I ended up thinning it 15% by weight and spraying through an HVLP gun. Its not as bullet proof as say, line-x. But it only cost me $100 to do the entire truck in 2 coats, and its a helluva lot tougher than paint!
Thanks for the comments!
