I've got an Estes Vapor that I am working on. I normally use spray paints to prime/paint my rockets. Normally this isn't a problem; I put a wand into the engine mount and spray from one end to the other, turning a bit for each pass (usually 6-7 passes on wider rockets), then do the fins. However, I am not used to working on such a long rocket as the Vapor. I am not sure if that is going to be the best method, given how long it is and how hard to go from end to end without stopping or screwing up. Are there any tips you veteran rocketeers can offer to help? Thanks.
The only other way I can think of to paint it would be to support the rocket on each end like a rotisserie, and turn it as I go along, but I don't know to pull that off unfortunately.
