Default Re: What kind of paint to use on an Otterbox style humi?



Box after first coat, still looking pretty ugly. Clear coat should help!

I would have preferred a brown with a bit more Red in it, but paint selection locally was sparse.



I could only get brown/black/white in the Fusion Plastic paint. so the base coat is brown.

The light colored lid on the top will be the second coat. It's a non-plastic paint, so it had to go on a base of plastic paint. I think that will work, I hope

NOW for the big decision....

A) light on the lid, dark on the bottom.

B) dark on the lid, light on bottom.

C) brown is fugly, paint the whole thing lighter!

A few test samples:




What do you think guys??? I'm a little indecisive on this one!
