    Rattle cans

    What type of paint do you guys use? And I mean like enamel or acrylic or water-based?

    The (regular/non hobby) spraypaint I use is of the 'acrylic' type (and stinks very toxic).

    Probably depends on what you like to do with it if you're looking for specific information.

      Depends on what its for

      Humbrol and revell do a nice range of acrylics

      Ive done many car kits using automotive rattle cans

      Important thing is to remember safety

          I have a few Tamiya TS cans, but decant these and spray through an airbrush.

              I use Krylon Matt's to prime my armoured vehicles and sometimes for the Dio terrain.
