I am new to customizing. Can anyone give me some helpful advice as to what kind of paint works best on plastic? For example I want to pant some of the parts on my S.N.A.K.E. armor (aka robot defenders).

try vallejo model series paints, the are great but the new citadel foundation paints work great as well

great thing is they are both water based

good luck and have fun

I'm using Revell enamel and acrylics, both are good, but you have to take care. A friend told me about a paint sealant that helps from Revell too.

got to get tough JOHIO!!!!!!

For figures I use Revell and Humbrol semi-matt enamels. The semi-matt finish matches the factory paint finish perfectly, and enamels are much more durable than acrylics, although they do require mineral turpentine clean up. For vehicles I use matt finish spray enamels, especially automobile undercoat for blacks and greys.
