Nice one.I use the,"Hair-dryer" trick and the Can in a Pan of warm water all the time.I also use the Hair-dryer when I'm bodging with twin pack adhesives to speed up curing
For cosmetic paint maintenance you can use some quick bodge tricks.Keep old supermarket plastic bags and stuff them around the area that needs touching up to stop over-spray.Cut a small piece of card around 4" or 6" square.Hold in one had as moveable masking.
Then you only have to use masking tape on those parts that really need it.Any little bits of over-spray just wipe off with thinners.
If you need to touch up small spots like on frames etc get a small
pencil/artist brush.Spray some of the Aerosol paint into the Can lid and dip your brush in it
