Most places will see 500 counts of paint find some paint that passes the
barel check and stick with it i use Draxxus pro ball but i dont use a J&J
eather.

Get a couple types and try to blow one through your barrel with your mouth, if you cant, its too big.

This is part of the barrel test I spoke of if you roll the paint down the
barrel and it dose not stick at all too smal. If it sticks and you cant blow it
out the barel with your mouth to big. What you want is one to two sticks
and soft blows will break it free and it will travel down the barel again.
Get this and your good to go.
