Flat black actually hides quite a bit of imperfections.

I rattle canned my '88 Celica GT myself, but it turned out bad because the paint was patchy in areas. So I bought a eBay HVLP gravity-feed spray gun and a gallon of John Deere Blitz Black paint(it's kind of a satin black...made for tractors so it holds up well.) I've got a reducer for the paint as well, and if I can get my garage warm enough I'm going to paint it with that stuff soon.
