just a simple question from you guys:
when painting and applying primer, should you stick the spoliers and other stuff first or do that seperately?
if not, what could be used as a stand for the spolier?
(assuming the spoiler is the same color and has small areas which are hard to paint when assembled)

if the spoiler is supposed to be the same color, then yes attach it.
if its a gt wing where the stand is usually a different color, then you would have to prepare the body to easily accept the wing. then just paint the wing part with the body. after everything is done, attach it to the body.

hmmm that method would make it very difficult to paint the underside and do any sanding or polishing if needed. I usually paint pieces such as that seperate and once everything is painted and smooth I assemble everything, but then everyone has a different method do what works for you
