I hold my plug on the end of a hanger wire. This way I can manipulate the plug at the same time I spray the paint. This allows me to rotate, tip etc. the plug as the paint arrives at the surface.
I also have some of the paint can caps that the Graffiti artists use. They allow fogging, lines etc.
Example; When painting the red cup of a popper I can hold the plug at an angle and rotate it in my fingers/thumb as the paints applys. This gives a nice even coat and cuts it into the body color as smmoth as if you used a mask!

Not to hijack but if you're gonna use spraypaint one way to get a much better finish is to go out get a spraycan of Minwax Helmsman spar poly and replace the nozzle on the paint with the one from the poly.
The poly nozzle sprays a flat pattern and is adjustable between horizontal and vertical.The poly nozzle also produces a "finer" spray.
