I have just got a relatively cheap styrene lid, im quite happy with it but the paint job wasnt great on it, and the decals are incorrect, so im thinking of a total respray to get it up to scratch plus i want it to match my FX armour and it is off white at the moment.

 

Many people seem to recommend the rustoleum high performance enamel white gloss, but i cant find anywhere in the uk that has it, and i cant get it shipped over. Does anyone here in the UK know of a supplier or of a good replacement? Also if not then perhaps the Krylon fusion? i can get this in the UK but i seem to have read mixed reviews about it. If so i would also need to know if i need to apply anything over the top of it as well to get that nice shiny ABS look :)

 

Any help is appreciated in this as im a complete noob when it comes to paint ( well...most costuming actually lol )

Ideal! Many thanks guys! Will pay halfords a visit asap and pick some up :) does that need a spray of anything else on top to give it that shine? Or is it fine with just that paint? Much happier now to know theres a good paint i can buy locally - epic win :)
