I am using createx t shirt paints, the only thing I have found that I dont like is it smuges if you dont heat set it with a hair dryer. and thats a little tricky because the heat likes to warp the foam. but I have also found a clear coat by createx so you dont have to heat set and it dosent smuge as bad.

crew chief,

How much weight does the createx add to the plane? Your paint jobs are awesome. I put some stripes on my first foamy and it didn't seem to add much at all. I used the airbrush gun and really put it on light. Have you tried latex before?

I've tried the Createx Auto Air and it's safe on Depron as well.

Do you thin the createx at all or just spray it out of the bottle?

I add a few drops of water to thin it out a little.
