What's the best way to hang parts when painting? I got the lazy Suzan with the clips but when I paint and clip a side that's been painted it grips to hard and leaves a mark on paint job. I have seen toothpick and tape on here. Any other suggestions that limit fing prints and uneven lines while painting.

Anything an everything. Alligator clips, tape, toothpicks, paint brushes, sprue, anything. I always try to find the one place that doesn't show.

I have used dozens of methods (whatever works the best for each part). I often use wire insulation stripped from a wire as small tubing to stick small round parts in it (then tape the tubing to a larger piece of wood to hold them.  I have also drilled holes into parts and super-glue brass rod to hold them.

 

Here is an example of what I used for one of my builds.
