I masked the yellow ends and painted the green
Masking with the handrails on is a bit more challenging but doable. I used Tru-color CNR green on the engine. It's an acetone-based paint so it dries very quickly but I need to thin it almost 50-50 with their thinner so it can be sprayed out of my airbrush. I was able to handle the engine and remove the masking tape within 15 minutes after painting but it will probably take more time before it is cured enough to mask over and paint the black.
