No way, Mr. Tim.

Well, the white primer was rattlecan. The rest was done with an airbrush kit from Harbor Freight, a proper air compressor and this stuff. Using the airbrush is pretty slow going but gives you great control and efficiency. (That bike is wearing exactly 2 oz of green color mixed with about 0.5 oz of reducer.)
