I've been reading up on it too, thinking about getting some kit, the results can be amazing!

prices of such a kit?

I think hundred or a couple of hundred, but I'm not totally sure. I know someone who does it so I might go and ask him about it etc..
 
Done a bit actually yes :). What you need to know?

Have done models and little things. Mainly photo's, what part of my job is tbh lol.
 
technical stuff realy, what preasures for compressors, specs on guns, I want it for case and part detailing. what to avoid what to buy. I will be using solvent based products so also what guns are best ect.

Pretty much everything, Im good with full size guns pushing 125psi and 10cfm compressors but the smaller ones I have no idea :(
 
depends what your planning on to be honest. I used to do some when I used to do alot of graffiti based art. These days I find it much more effective to use simple spray cans for my style. You can get the same subtlty, just takes ALOT more effort, but I fid it much more rewarding.
 
Im looking to do a range tbh dude and I couldnt get some of the detail Im thinking of with cans. I might just get a small gun and a range of tips. But if I make the move to 2k then I need a massive compressor at home to power the gun AND the airfed mask that I would need.
