What paint?

I'm wondering what type of paint you guys use? It's been bugging me not knowing.

I use Testors and I have been known to use Rustoleum with clear coat.

I use to use "Testors", but it takes too damn long to dry, and I have no patiences... I now use automotive, or outdoor furniture paint. And I also use flat (non glossy) paints, then clear coat them or not. Depends on how I'm feeling that day. Good luck man.

I use "testors" spray and model paint. Sometime I hand paint my cars, other days I spray paint my cars.

After you paint it, put it under lights. That will help it dry and dry harder as well. ( Don't put the light to close or you will melt your bodies.)
