Painting Badges

[swoosh_stang]

I want to paint my badges. I want them black with red highlights. I was thinking of using black spraypaint and red model paint. Does anyone have suggestions on the best way to do this.

I want to do all of the Badges. The snakes, 10th and SVT badges.

Enamel model paint will probably give you the best results. You will probably want to scuff up the slick areas first to help the paint stick.

I like the ModelMasters line from Testors. They have a LOT more colors and it self-levels quite nicely.

You should also consider clearing those badges too. Duplicolor high gloss clear coat works well.

I haven't done it; but does the clear turn the chrome badge milky at all?
