Once read on this forum a member saying he uses Airbrushing instead of spray painting for smaller jobs.  I browsed on www.airbrushwarehouse.co.za just to get some indication of cost. 

1. Biggest piece I'll probably spray with this is an turntable plinth
2.  Is it easier to clean/maintain etc the airbrush than conventional spray gun?
3.  If going this route I'll buy a kit including compressor, any recommendations on brands, type of feed, nozzle size etc
4.  I do have a big compressor, is it worthwhile to invest in another system or should I rather just get a spraygun

I like the idea of the airbrush being more mobile as my normal compressor is positioned underneath a work bench and a hassle to move around :thinking:
