Painting Masks

[Ahdinko]

Have done a search for this, and I know there was a thread a while ago, but can't seem to find it.
What paint do I want to use for my mask, that wont discolour, chip, or flake?
Went into my local paint shop and I got some guy trying to sell me radiator paint
Looked on the yank side, and they are saying to use that Krylon Fusion stuff, fair enough, but I can't find any here in the UK.

Can anyone recommend me a good paint or a supplier?

Cheers.

UK side, about the only stuff we can get is Plasti-dip. its a plastic based paint, once its on, its pretty decent, but once it starts to peel, it peels bad as its plastic based.

krylon fusion is recommended, but any plastic bonding paint should work.

painted masks are not meant to be allowed by any league or tournament... just so you know.

look good for training, and other stuff maybe... but just be aware you may be asked to remove them, since for all the event knows, you could've used radiater paint or something silly and altered the tollerances of the goggs, thusly potentially weakening them... etc

Yeah, just want to muck around with some old goggs and make them agg-tastic

Will keep my decent ones non painted for tourney purposes

Hmm, Krylon.com says that the camoflague paint has the same fusion plastic bonding gear that the Krylon Fusion paint does.

Could be useful, cheers Oily!

surely if you painted it well enough - they would never ever know

 

[sumo89]

so painted masks arent allowed in any tournaments?
is that if only a tiny bit is painted? or just in patches?
