Paint Job Equipment

[vietxxxtasy]

I'm new to painting and never done it before. I want to learn how to but now sure what equipment to but. I don't have an air compressor or a spray gun. Can someone out there give me some recomendations one what brands to buy? How many gallons and how much power does the compressor have to be to be able to get the job done? How much will the compressor and gun be? also curious about how much the paint, thinner, reducer and all that will cost?

kicker do you have a booth? I have painted many cars and I can't see how it would turn out good (with out trash in the paint) without a booth.
