I just ordered a Bilco cellar door for my house. It comes in Primer. What would be the best method and paint to paint it? Should I use normal spray paint, should I use a roller and brush? harbor freight gun with some rustoleum and some type of thinner?? I'm not sure, never painted one.

test. this is a large image of our damaged robot today

Thank you..
