Alright folks, the new Sky Striker will definitely be easier to airbrush than to hand paint. I don't like using enamels, i prefer acrylics. Heard Krylon Fusion may not adhere well to some plastics.
So what is the best airbrush and acrylic paint combo to paint the new Sky Striker? |

I use Krylon Fusion on my SkyStriker and it came out perfect. I like Model Master acryl paint.

Don`t use krylon on it. Use model master, or Tamiya or PPG paints. they work better and have less run with them.

Tamiya spray paint works really well. Make sure you was all the parts with warm water and dish soap first to ger rid of dust and oils

let me add this.. if he uses rattle can.. make sure to also heat up some water in a small mug.. put a ziploc bag in the water, then put the can in the ziploc for about 3-4 minutes sitting in the water.. bringing the paint temp up, which spraying then will be very very fine works and will give a great coverage.

Which is better, Tamiya spraypaint or Testors? Does Tamiya melt through the plastic? Sucks that Krylon is easier to find than the others.
