Hi Everyone,

I just got a set of the mirrored blue Acrylic Templates (movement and a R3 Ruler). What type of paint do you use for the numbers? I have acrylic paint and wondered if that would be best? Also, if anyone else has a set of these what color did you do the numbers?

Thanks!!

Acrylic paint is the way to go. Consider applying a couple of coats.

I used black paint on mirrored blue, which looked fine. But maybe I'd use a sky blue next time.

What color are your templates? As a rule of thumb, if they're a light color, use dark paint. If they're a dark color, use pale paint.

I have black Matt or Semi Gloss and I have White and Cream. I don't have blue or sky blue.

Which one should I do? Give me your vote!!

I would say any of those would work. I kinda think the White would look the nicest to be honest. As for application, I found the best way to do it was to airbrush it on. I don't know if it's because I had the radiant acrylic, but when I hand painted them and then peeled the cover off, the edges of the paint came off too.

I plan on Airbrushing it and feel white is a good call so there we go!!
