    what's the best paint to use on resin?

    Hey guys, i'm sure this belongs somewhere else but I wasn't sure where to ask...I have a pretty expensive Disney Figure that cracked and I just finished repairing it but it's made out of Resin, what's the best type of paint to use on Resin?
    thanx in advance for the help

      If it's clear resin you might want to first use a non-gloss acrylic grey primer then whatever acrylic color you need over that.

          I've never had a problem with acrylic staying tacky at all on resin.
          Enamel on the other hand is a nightmare stay clear away from enamels!!!
