which brand of car spray paint do y'all use

I've heard of people getting great results with these. So far, the automotives primer worked really well, but the plasticote white spray has been terrible. It runs really bad, and comes out in chunks. I'll going to try to find a different nozzle for it per recommendation, but it there another brand I should be looking at? Thanks!

My order of preference:

Tamiya (all)
Duplicolor (all)
Gunze Sangyo (primer)
Plastikote (primer)
Model Master (colors)
Krylon (primer)
Plastikote (colors)

Plastikote stinks, in my opinion
