[Closed] What Bike Paint?

I've seen a lot of posts about powder coating and rattle cans. I'm looking for paint to spray through a gun.
I've got compressor, guns, ventilation/extractors and PPE so 2k paint not an issue.

Does anyone have any recommendations on brands of paint for bikes? And where to get it? My local auto paint supplier closed so I'm really looking at online.
For the current frame I'm thinking dark purple flake over black base.

Many thanks.

The base coats dried really well so would all depend on what you were clear coating them with. If you did a scratch proof clear coat or ceramic clear coat then you should be bullet proof
The guys super helpful if you need to ask any questions too
