Lexon Paint

[Honest John]

Been shooting Pactra lacquer on my car bodies with a Pasche
airbrush for a few decades now.
Thinking about switching to the water-based Fascolor.
I'm just a little leery about the adhesion of the stuff to plastic.

Does it grab like the solvent based stuff?
Does it flake, chip, rub off?
Do you hate it, love it?
Does it cleanup with water very easy?
Thanks,

I'm still using spay cans. And I find them very durable, but too expensive.
How good is the Pactra Lacquers? Do they flake? >> My biggest pet peeve!!
Arrrg.

Well, I still fall back on the aerosol can for the one color
jobs,or real big areas. I really don't notice any difference.
For all I know it might be the same paint.
I assumed they were, anyway.
The overspray from the cans is my big gripe.
The "cobwebs" from the airbrush still show up with some
settings using the lacquer. Not a real problem though.
As far as durability, I'd have to say they are the same.

Hi,

I recently picked up some Createx paints that seem to work great. I
also purchased the additive that allows them to stick better to smooth
surfaces, but haven't had a problem yet.

They're waterbased and a bit cheaper than the Faskolor paints (about
half the price, even with the additive).

You might want to give them a try.
