Lots of books, info on custom paint for cars Google the Eastwood Co.. For any brush graphics, lettering, striping, you want "One Shot" sign painter's enamel Works way better, in every way.

Only need primer if base coat is gone. Spraying top coat takes tools, equipment, dedicated space. Brushed.enamel (or urethane enamel) looks surprisingly good when properly prepped and applied. Tractor and Equipment paint is the easy way to get what you want.
