Default RE: What paint to use



Oldscaleguy,   You're right, I meant Flotrol not Floquil.  Sorry for the confusion.  </p>

Chopper.     I have used Nelson's product for years and as others have said, it is a good product.  Similar to latex, but more durable.  However, it is a bear cat to spray and get consistent results.  It is very easy to brush or roll, but only on fabric.  You'll want to spray it on glass or plastic parts.  Does not dry to a high gloss, but the clear coat is very good if you have to have the gloss.  If you use Nelson's, DO NOT use any primer but his.  I was talked into using another product, which some say will work.  It WILL NOT.  Nelson's will not stick to anything except his primer.  His product is water based and very user friendly.  The clear will not yellow.</p>

Good luck with your project,</p>
