When you want it done right....use a spray gun....I used it yesterday and today to paint ONE item. A bracket to hold up a motion control camera...the size of two soda can stacked on top of one another.. Total time painting...20 minutes....total time cleaning my gun and area....30 minutes.

If you want a killer paint job, there are some spray cans that actually have an ampule inside the can that releases catalyst once triggered (there is a push button on the underside of the can)..You get quality paint like PPG out of a nozzle...Not cheap but I have a few cans myself in the basement where its nice and cool. Once you crack it open though, you have to use it all or you have to toss it.
