I've been spraying my celica over a period of a few weeks with Acrylic and it has come out really well. Let every few coats dry over a few days and you'll come out with a lot tougher job than just putting it all on at once. I'm using some AAA thinners with some retarder aswell so that the paint flows that little bit longer, and also eats into the last few coats. Just make sure you have a decent amount of primer under there, otherwise the thinners will go straight through and can react with whatever might be underneath the primer. If unsure, use some sealer.

2Pac is not the thing to use in a back yard. Acrylic is easy to work with after spraying, especially if a few little spots come up that need to be fixed. Its also easier to take your time on. Maintain the finish and keep it out of the sun, it'll definately last.

Good luck!
