Default Mystichrome alternative

I was looking around for good paint and came across this web site:
Alsa Corp
I was thinking about painting my car myself with some of these paints.
As I have no equipment or experience, any advice would be helpful.
Thanks

The paint looks good but i think it will end up looking like s*** if you do it yourself. Painting is a hard skill to have.

I have to agree with the others on this one. Painting is very hard on a car because you have to get everything, like every crack and inside doors. Also you might want to prime and lay a nice layer or 2 of a clear coat so that scratches don't go into the paint. Also oyu would want a painting booth so that no dirt,pollen,leaves,or other things go into the paint and thenscrew up a nice coat of paint. I would buy that paint and then give it to a professional becasue if you do it yourself and screw up then the paint guy will kill you on prices for not going to him in the first place.
