Title: Paint for painting lead
Post by: jaenswart on September 21, 2010, 08:21:58 PM
Guys,

I'm looking for paint to use to paint lead castings. Sinkers etc etc.

Where can I get some? Also especially looking for liveglow or glow in the dark paint.

Hi jaenswart, i painted some a while back with the dayglo orange paint that the S.A.A.F used on the Harvard trainer a/c , doesnt seem to stay on long but i didnt clean the lead up or roughen the lead surface so the paint had something to bind on to... i'll see if i can get some more and pass it on to you how much do you need.. ?
