I'm sure this topic has been worked to death, but I figured I'd ask anyway and folks would direct me to other posts. I have lots of Ross track, so old and some brand new, that I want to paint rail brown. I bought a paint roller thingy at York some years ago, but never used it yet. I also bought the rail brown water-based paint from the same vendor. I have an airbrush and thought about using that too, but was looking forward to having to mask literally hundreds of feet of rail tops. Lastly, I'm considering buying the Floquil rail paint pens.
So... what's the consensus? What's the best way to paint lots of rail without making a mess?
