This is a big step, and without any experience you should plan on ruining several engines and/or paint jobs before you can get the hang of it. Painting with spray cans can take a lot of practice, they are more difficult to use than air brushes - the paint comes out so fast that you can put too much on too fast and it will run. If you are painting more than one color, the masking between colors will have to be perfect, as the spay paint will run under the tape. If it doesn't it will leave a ridge on the edge when removed. Maybe a good idea to practice on a few junk box cars first. Bob Boudreau
