Normally I'm not a grammar nazi, but your lack of punctuation and capitals is making it really hard for me to parse what you're asking. Are you asking if it's possible to use spray can paint with brushes? If so, the answer is yes; look for spray paint decanting.

Look at White Ensign colour coat paints, under US navy.
Haze grey; there are two depending on the date.
The Deep red is most likely anti fouling red.
They are enamel and brush paint quite well...

Your welcome mate. I must confess I did have to read it twice but the question was clear enough. Even if it could of used a couple of commas' and a full stop here and there.
What the hey. lol
