Quest Magnum Sport Loader #3012 Build, Part 11, Engine Mount Painting

I probably shouldn't have glued the engine mount in yet. Even if it were painted the same color as the main body, trying to get paint into the corners of the mount would be hard. It would end up looking like a bad over spray.
I decided to paint it black then mask before the final color.

Some Rusto 2X gloss black was sprayed into a small cup. A small brush was dipped in, the excess wiped off and the engine mount painted.


I was surprised by how well the Rusto 2X black brushed on. There was almost full coverage with just one coat.
After the second touch-up was dried, any paint outside the tube edges was lightly sanded off.
