    I have no access to a spray gun or booth.

    What are your opinions on a durable coating/ paint for the steering (center link, tie rod, etc) and suspension components (sway bars, control arms, etc.).

    All parts are new.

    Thanks, Jim P.

    Wouldn't it be faster and less shipping charge if you got it at O'Reilly?

    I don't think we have an O'Rielly here.

    I'm going to check Auto Zone today.

    Not sure what color youre going for but napa has some spray can paints that are supposibly the same as the kind you mix and spray. Auto tec? is the brand? The etching primer is tough. Havent used the others though.

    Out of all the spray paint I've ever used, Seymour is by far the best, well worth the money.
