Can you use house paint on cars if you thin it enough for the paint gun?

Curious Chamoru asked:


Automobile-paint is more expensive than house-paint. I want to know if I could thin the house paint enough to run it through my paint gun and then apply automobile clear-coat afterwards. Will this work?

      You can use it.
      You can even brush paint a car if you want.

      But it will look horrible.

      It might not matter in a workhorse truck, only driven inside a plantation for example.
