    Acrylics for R/C boats

    Not my scene at all guys but one of my colleagues at work has asked if I can recommend an acrylic paint for the hull of an R/C boat.

    Could anyone help with a source or brand name please?

    I tend to stay away from acrylics for boats. i tend to prefer using Enamel or Plasticote paints

      Depends on which surface he is spraying. Some boats, like the cars have a clear plastic mould that you spray on the inside. If it was me I would go for a plasticote paint. Slightly more durable and tolerant to flexing.
