Yeah I get that question a lot here at coast airbrush .
Here is a link to some different ones we Cary on this page . I love the five star brand . It's on the page in aerosol .
The qts and gals were takin off for a bit but they are now available again . You may have to call to order them until we get them back on the site . The five star is very popular for pinstriping as well . Other good ones are the advantage , and the House of Kolor kc20 . Here is the link

Depends on what paint you use. If your using urethanes then you want to use water base degreasers. If your using water base paint then use a solvent base degreaser. Water base paint doesn't hold up as well as urethanes so you always have to be careful when you wipe them down with anything other than a dry rag.
