Try another paint shop, the ones I went to would mix you up a rattle can of whatever you wanted for $15 bucks.

Most epoxy primer's are 2 part. I'm not sure if you can get it in a spray can.

The last time I was at the paint store there was a 2 part epoxy primer in an aerosol can,bizarre looking setup.The can had an exposed section that allowed the activator into the can but its a one use deal.

I agree,I thought I used to see that stuff on shelves at home centers years ago.They sell epoxy paint all over the place in rattle cans.
