Don't spray paint indoors uhhh....lemme think what else there is to be said about spray priming... the goal isn't to actually have the whole thing covered in white, you literally want a little bit of primer on it so that paint stays on and applies well. I think that about covers any advice you're going to get I mean when it comes down to it...its just spray paint...OH! also! hold it upside down and spray a little bit um annnnnd spray a piece of cardboard or some scrap stuff, in my experience this tends to get rid of that rough crappy effect might be cause built up paint in the intake tube?

Times like this I want a PICTURE of a properly primed mini. If I'm spray paint priming, and I can see some spekeled plastic from certain angles, is that good enough or do I need to hit it quickly once more.? I'll try and get a picture of this in about 12 hours.
