Default What kind of spray gun to use for Plastidip?

I wrecked my car and I'm working on fixing it. When I get the body work done I really didn't wanna be driving it around with big primer spots. I figrued I'd Plastidip the whole car until time to get it painted. I found Plastidip by the gallon online. Does anybody know if it can be sprayed with a gravity fed gun or another type especially made for it?

I think, and I stress the word "think" your best bet is to get a 2.0 tip and one of those harbor freight cheap guns that go for 9.99 on sale. I would start thinning the plasti dip out at a 1:4 ratio and see what happens until you find the correct viscosity. I personally wouldn't spray plasti dip in any gun that I wouldn't mind throwing away afterwords lol.
