#53828, "Dash painting ? (WTF ANother 1?)"

Ok im sorry for asking something about painting the dash, but my dad told me an idea. Instead of using a spray paint can, could i just get the paint and use an airbrush to do it? I figured id have more control doing it like this. any imput would be appreciated!

Mods can you please move this to the interior/exterior forum? I posted in the wrong forum lol

i would think that airbrushing would be even better. like you said more control less running and less overspray if you know what your doing. i say go for it. i would have if i had access to one. emoji
