Spraypainting with krylon

**carsnut** · 10-20-2005, 02:05 PM

I was just wondering if it was possible that you could use krylon spraypaint to paint the bodies of model cars. Also, does the body have to be primed(my local shop dosen't have primers) or is there an alternative?

You can, but make sure you sand the body before spraying

I wouldn't recommend it. There's so many better alternatives. Namely Tamiya spray cans. Beautiful finish every time.

The Testors paint creates a great finish

With a good deal of patience.

Then you have to spray on the protectant

Krylon creates a really rubbery paint on models

I c. Testors is 20/80(80 is thinner), right?
