Always use Acrylic paints on joes its a must
the enamel will stay wet for a long time and it just makes a mess of a figure
and as far as brands go its just like anything in life pretty much u get what ya pay for
try to use different ones that fit ur budget and eventually you will figure out what paints are good for what type of custom you creating sum you might want Gloss or u might want flat or a combination of both
another tip that helps is try to thin ur paint with a lil bit of water when ur painting so it dosent come out globby and thick it may take more coats but the coats will be even
just sum stuff i thought might help
when i got into it i just dived in and learned the hard way and like sumone posted above try to find costomizers that u like there work and try to get sum pointers from them as it will save you big headaches and disappointment later
im still learning and im 100 customs deep now
its a thing that takes alot of practice and patience to become a real master like some of the guys on this board that i look up to myself
