Spray paint needed

[terces]

DS is building a molecule and needs red, yellow and green spray paint. Let me know if you have any lying around you don't need. Hate to buy brand new for such a small project.

Walmart sells model paint, like for model cars. It's pretty cheap and comes in small jars. It's in the toy section.

Figured it would be a lot easier to spray paint styrofoam balls...rather than use a paint brush. He has 24 atoms..:thud:

Yeah...spray paint would *definitely* be the way to go. I hope someone has what you need.

Sorry, should have added that you can buy a little air sprayer to attach to the little bottles, less mess. I think you can get a whole set with sprayer for like $20, but it's been a year or so since we've looked at them.

oops make it orange yellow green.

Doesn't spray paint eat styrofoam?

arggh... googled that and its true with some spray paints.

I'm pretty sure standard spray paint would dissolve the foam.

I do have some extra yellow and orange though. Can you cover it with tape, then paint with spray paint?

Tested some spray paint used for painting plastic. No dissolve noticed. :)
