Is it safe to paint the FT Bloody Baron?

[paulsnapp]

I am building my first FT Bloody Baron and would like to know if it is safe to paint it and not cause the paper to release from the foam? If so, what paints are safe to use? Thanks!!

Hey! Welcome to the forum! What foam board are you using? Is it Flite Test's Maker foam, or Dollar Tree Foamboard?

Thanks for the reply! I bought the kit from FT so I am using the Flite Test's Maker foam.

Yes you can definitely paint it. Just lightly scuff it with some scotch brute first, as it will help the paint to stick.

What paint is safe to use after scuffing it a little?
