FINISH PROCEDURE FOR DEPRON JETS ??
Greetings . I am building depron jets and have no idea how to finish them. I have been flying for 34 years but have never fooled with fomies. Can someone tell me the prep procedures , what paint or covering to use and how it is applied. Thanks much Denny

Krylon short cuts is one of the better rattlecan paints for foam. Krylon H20 runs really easily and is a bit thick by the time the color looks good.
If you have an airbrush and dont mind a little mixing, go to wally world, in the houshold/craft area they have a myriad of colors in waterbased acrylic for around a buck a color. They are excellent paints for our foamies and clean up great.
