you don't really
use brushes you know

though, i guess you could

an air brush is just a way to
spray paint that
gives you a lot more control
than a rattle can

masking tape
pre-cut masks
and the place i work part time
has a sign maker
that will make anything i want
you can scan stuff in
and size to what you want
then transfer to vinyl

works really nicely
