I've just recently painted some gal rods, and debated whether to spray and permagloss or tint the permagloss. Never having used permagloss, I'm glad I sprayed first. In my hands, I think I got a better finish quickly wiping on the thin pg clear coats. Man, that stuff starts setting up FAST.

I've used Testor's with the solvent poured off and also a 'hardware store' white paint pigment; the pigment added to the paints we buy at stores to color it with.
