    You can spray it, you just need the correct sized fluid tip for the gun. If its the one Im thinking about you will need a HUGE tip for it.

    Yea, we sprayed bed liner on the underside of the fenders on Faye using a "Shoots" (wrong spelling) gun for undercoating.

    I sprayed Zolotone bed coating through a cheapy siphon gun by putting a tee in the air line and pressurizing the pot at the vent fitting, through a regulator set at about 5 psi.

    I coated the underside of my 62 fairlane with Herculiner. I used a normal sandblasting gun for a cabinet style set up ( siphon fed ). I just removed the ceramic insert and it worked like a charm. Cheap and easy.
