Hi Matt, welcome to the forum. There's a lot of info here. I'm sure a lot of guys will chime in on this but as far as equipment goes, all I can say is that it's better to invest in a good airbrush that can suit your needs right off the bat. You can get cheap compressor and hardware that will work fine. On goalie masks, I scuff the surface with 800 grit wet sandpaper. Clean the surface with a degreaser and paint away. I use the new Auto Air paints, they're water-based.... works for me.
