justjoseph63[Staff] Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 As for paint, I would use enamel, such as Testor's, which is much more durable than acrylic. Also, it helps to sand down the heads before applying it for better adhesion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
