Since I got back into 3D printing I really want to fix up my prints now with sanding and coloring. Would airbrushing or traditional painting (paint brush) be better?

    I personally avoid sanding. I use modelling epoxy to reduce layer line visibility, then I apply a coat or two of high build primer. I only sand a little bit to reduce imperfections from epoxy and primer. Then I use spray can paint and finish with a lacquer.

        Takes a lot of effort and it’s not worth it. Fill the layer gaps with epoxy, job’s done.
