What createx series to use for lexan

Post by AYKBOBCAT »

Hi

I have been searching for discussions on airbrush ready Createx paints for lexan and found several but I am confused. I'd like to buy a batch of primary paint to learn to use airbrush for RC bodies and I've seen several discussions on these paints but I can't really figure out which paint series I should buy. Createx has several types ont their web site. Can someone tell me which one I should purchase? This is going to be my first trial at airbrushing so... any advice would be a great help!

Thanks!

Ok thanks for this. Should I understand then that all Createx airbrush paints are good to use on lexan or some series like the wicked colours are the ones to use?
Thanks for the help much appreciated...

all of the Createx paint types will work.
Make sure you spray in thin layers and let dry in between.
Then back the paint job with some sort of Lexan spray paint like Tamiya PS series.
Silver works great and will keep the colors bright underneath.
