Hey guys Ihave a quick question that somebody could help me with. Here goes:

What kind of paint would you use on a brand new F27c Stryker body? The reason that I'm asking is because I know that some will attack the foam and some might not stick as well. Basically I have bought an extra body and want to paint a cool design on it for when I spank my original one into the ground. These Stryker's are too much fun apart from them CHEAP servos they put in, you would probably agree.

Thanks

Testors model paint has stuck pretty well, and hasnt reacted with the foam on mine. You just need 2-3 days for total drying, no matter what the can says

I used H2O spray paint on mine. It's available at Wal-Mart stores. Only problem is there is not much of a color selection.
You don't have to do this, but before I sprayed the paint on, I sprayed the foam with 3M 77 Super adhesive which is also available at Wal-Mart.
One the glue dried up well, I then sprayed it with the paint. I think the paint sticks better this way.

You can also use a foam brush and Acrylic paint. I get mine at Michael's. I usually use the glossy paint.
