Exterior paint - see Sherwin-Williams.

You can get a paint roller and masking tape there, too.

I think the roller process only works on the YELLOW ones :D

Most Vipers were painted by ASC with Akzo Nobel paints. (a few early 1998's had PPG). Sikkens is the retail equivalent of Akzo.

As far as stripe application goes, the body panels are completely painted with the base color and cleared, then the stripe outline is masked and the paint is lightly scuffed (not to primer). The stripe only is then painted and cleared. After the baking process the stripe is lightly sanded with 2500 grit paper and polished.
