Hi everyone,

I have been doing models for years but never had the space for a dio.

I want to start but I am not sure of the materials and tools to use.

For example:

If I make walls out of foam, what type of paint can I use?

What can you use to make details in foam?

What type of glue should I be using :confused: ?


Thanks :thumbsup:

First - Welcome here.

The glue that works best is foam glue - Walmart, hobby supplies, etc carry it. You can also use two-part expoxy as well.

Arcylic paints wok well, too. Once sealed thou... You can use most paints - Oil, etc.

hi, you can use a hot melt glue gun also if your careful. yes the foam will melt( a little) so make sure its not a surface you need to be smooth unless your going to cover/weather it. Details: depends on what kind of details you want to make and what kind of foam you plan to use.
