- how do you guys paint a part that has been taken off the tree? More specificlly, how do you hold a part for painting where there's no where to grab hold of??

If I take a part off the tree for test fitting, then need to prime and paint it, a problem arise, because there's no where to hold/ grab on the part while painting, for parts that has surfaces that's invisible I tend to bluetack that side (that doesn't need to be painted).

But for certain parts that require paints on all it's surface, like a rear wing of an F1 car, what do I do?

- Blue tack 1 side, and paint the others first, wait until it dry, then bluetack the painted side, finish painting the surface that wan't painted the first time around?

This problem only just happened because I used to paint all the parts while they are still on the tree, so i always have something to hold onto. then when the paint is dry, I take off the parts and try to touch up the bit that was attached to the tree - if it's visible.

But now I started test fitting, sanding and filling using putty, I had to cut them off first. DOH.
