Ulix:
Your local paint store sells a product by a company called Preval that
is essentially a mini disposable spray gun. It is complete with pressure
cannister and glass bottle etc. You just mix your paint up and fill up
the glass bottle. Results are very good if you take your time and use
several coats like the pros.
Not too expensive, eack "kit" costs about $5.
