Model Paint or Paint Pens for Box Touch Up?

Posted by Jim Goodman on June 19, 2016 at 8:33am in Building Secrets, Tips, Advice, Discussion

Hey y'all - happy Sunday....

I've got pretty decent box that is need of some touch up. Before I apply any label protection I'd like to touch up the black border and was wondering if anyone had recommendations as to what provided the best results. I was thinking enamel model paint or paint pen.

Thanks!

    I think paint or India ink can work, too. The pigments are much better and long lasting. Both are better than a sharpie in the long run.

    Thanks for the replies - fortunately it's just some spots. I think the enamel with a fine tip brush will get what I need done and it'll hold fast the edges where the paper is exposed since I have since decided I'm not going to spray the box.

    I have used a sharpie or colored markers on spots like this.....
