I want to have a go at spray painting some small MDF necklace stands in a
gloss black colour.

I have a compressor and a spray gun that came as part of the air nailer
package and as I have never used it I want to give it a try.

What kind out paint do I need to buy? Can I use ordinary household black
gloss thinned down with something or do I need something of a more
specialist nature.

Thanks for any pointers
