well,.... sorta.

I'm going this weekend to do a contract job for a company that makes sculpture type stuff out of styrofoam, coats it, then has it airbrushed to look realistic. I've done some 3D stuff like this and enjoyed it before, but am a bit concerned cause the guy said they use latex......do ya spose he's talking about water-based in general or what? Of course i assured him that if it's been sprayed successfully thru an airbrush before i could do it, but would like to ask the faithful here if they're familiar with this type work and any weirdness i might encounter using LATEX........hmmmm...surely they're using createx or something??

im sure he ment water based, cause urathane melts foam, or any patrolium product at that. any water based paint should work great
