Hey, anons. I'd like to add some missing paint apps to some of my figures. I saw these at hobby lobby for $2.70 a bottle and wondered if any if you have had experiences with them. Not really looking to spend major dollar on citadel and vallejo since I wouldn't be using them that often or need high quality touch up. I've use regular craft paints on figures before but Im hoping these have a better adherance.
>>11141427You might try /tg/, specifically the /wip/ thread, because they know a lot about painting stuff.
>>11141427Why doesn't it stick to the plastic bottle if it's meant for plastic?
>>11141769anon I’m not going to explain how paint works I’m just going to tell you you’re dumb
>>11141427What's the figure and where are the damaged spots.

>>11141427didnt know folkart was doing more then just craft painthttps://youtu.be/8qsqCfj8ilY?t=1100It still doesn't look like its any better for action figures, as most craft paints are without a basecoat
>>11142457I went ahead and grabbed some primary colors. So far I am happy with it for what I wanted to use them for. Seems to stick to the figure plastic much better than the regular folk art. Dries to the same sheen as the rest of the figures paints apps. Going to let them dry for a week at least to really make sure it cures properly.
>>11141427these are fine, I have to water them down to get a smooth finish, lots of thin coats
Use primer first.

That's actually what I use for my model kits, since I'm mostly just touching up the metal parts that look like shit if you leave them grey.I use an eyedropper to get just enough water in to thin it out, since you need to layer it on thin over a few days.
