[TR] Painting

I have sprayed bonnets and boots and wings, but have not had the  
questionable pleasure of spraying an engine bay.  I won't say I'm a pro but  I 
can do a 
decent job, nothing that color sanding and buffing can't make look  really good.
I have just finished the engine bay on my 3A, and I have to say, what a  
PITA.  If I were to do it all over again I would mask the bulkhead and  
opposite 
inner wing and spray the remaining.  Wait a day or so and mask the  bulkhead 
and painted wing and spray the remaining . . .and, you get the  picture.  The 
overspray issue is such a pain.  Am I on the right track  here, or am I 
overthinking it?  I used an HVLP gravity feed, but  still!! 
Comments please
