after my first acrylic, i noticed the need to paint the tubes. so with the next two i did, i painted one set of tubes white for a white pen i did and another black for a blueish, relatively clear acrylic.
i used some plastic paint for the white, seemed to work pretty well. but for the black, i didn't have anything sitting around so i used a sharpie. bad idea. it looks terrible beneath the blank. it pooled up from the ca i guess and got stripped off most of the tube.
so, can anyone offer any tips on what kinds of paint work well for painting tubes and should something other than CA be used to glue them with? also, does the inside of the blank need painted also?
thanks!
