Spraying PermaGloss?

Have any of you tried spraying PremaGloss? I have applied PG with a foam brush on a few smaller wood projects but without attempting to achieve a glossy, clear coat finish and am pleased with the results. Yes, I am aware of the Home Depot rattle-can urethanes but looking for something less stinky (and for 2 weeks), quicker drying and more durable.

It does not lend itself well to being sprayed.

Mark, I have gotten a great glossy surface applying PG to a blank with a foam brush. One good quick swipe with a well loaded brush worked well.

Tom,
Thank you. I wonder if something in the chemical make-up hinders its sprayability other than just the Xylene which evaporates so quickly. God knows one would have to clean-out the gun sooner than immediately after spraying.
Phil,
Thank you as well. I have had and rely upon the same great results as you applying PG to a revolving blank. The project of concern does not involve rod building and involves flat wood surfaces joined at different angles to each other hence the sprayability question.
