Default Pretty easy project, the prep and cleaning is the most...
important part. The painting is easy, the prep and waiting for the paint to dry takes the most time.

Default get the G2 paint kit, it is much more durable.
I used the high temp paint, and it's not glossy anymore after about 2 months.

if u do go the high temp paint route, using a brush is much easier imho
