try to use standox paint, its apparently one of the best paints on the market and is what i had the phantom painted in.
To give you an idea the phantom cost £1300 all in, but that was mates rates, i know of a local FG specialist painter that did the silver demo phantom for £3k.
Expect to pay around £70/litre for decent paint. iirc there were about 3 - 4 litres used on the phantom.
oh and before you paint it get them to put all FG parts through a bake cycle, it helps to get any air out of the gel coat before it gets painted.
