paint?

Post by widowmaker »

does anybody have some tips on what paint (NOT OIL) is the better option?

not colour, we all know which colour is the best - i'm talking brands/types/methods maybe?

also, is the most expensive necessarily the best or are there "generic brands" like pick'npay paracetamol? doesn't have to stay pretty forever or be able to withstand launching into outer space - just be awesome enough for now.

maybe you know the price / coverage?
