Painting a VW baja

[celticsun33]

I have a proline baja body I want to paint. I know I have to paint from the bottom, and use paint made for the lexan. What I dont know is what paint to use for an airbrush?

ProLine has a new line of paints, similar to Faskolor by Parma.

Does have a learning curve as it’s WB

I did this for the wife , first time with ProLine paint, worked pretty good after some reduction and pressure adjustments.

Thanks, would an acrylic paint marker work for fine line work? you know, like window trim etc

How well is the Proline paint holding up for you?

I’m impressed, I was able to shoot at lower psi vs Parma or Auto Air.
Seems to stick well, nothing chipping or peeling. I used Black, Fuchsia, Hot Pink, White, Black, semi matte clear outside.
All reduced a bit differently, common with most WB paints

I like the Commanche Mike. Turned out real nice!

Should work, it would get sealed in. I would spray some PS 55 first though
