ChilliSpoons Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 To get a certain effect on some spoons I've been playing with using a toothbrush to apply sporadic brush strokes of fluorescent paint. The only paint that I currently have is the Createx or AutoAir that I used for my airbrush. Obviously this paint won't cure properly and will have durability issues. Does anyone have any suggestions for paint types that would work for this application?I prefer not to use solvent based paints as my painting is done in the basement. The spoons will be finished with either a concrete sealer or a rattle can clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaw Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 What about enamel model paint like testors I know it's solvent based but for limited painting with a toothpick I don't think fumes will be an issue plus they have a broad collor selection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChilliSpoons Posted December 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Thanks for the response Jaw. Will the testors paint play nice with the layers of Createx, AutoAir and the concrete sealer topcoat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChilliSpoons Posted December 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 And the paint is applied with a toothbrush not a toothpick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaw Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Sorry I misread that. I am not sure about the reaction with concrete sealer I have some but have yet to try it. I haven't used the testors paint in a few years although I have a drawer full of it but I used to thin it and shoot it a lot until I got tired of having to wear a mask if I was shooting a lot in small paint sections it wasn't bad but I can't remember if I mixed the createx and testors paint on anything because the testors paint has so many color options. Sorry I can't be more help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
