oddly enough, try one of your local hobby shops. Those tiny cans of paint are laquer, and run about $7-8 a can. 2 cans will do an entire guitar body if you are frugal.

So you want metallic green or green with glitter in it? If you just want metallic green pain go to an auto parts store and look at what they got. The "cayman green" paint I used on my bronco is metallic, they have a couple lighter color greens that are metallic I think.
