EPO Foam models - painting and finishing

Recommended Posts

I have a couple of EPO models which I'd like to 'improve'.

The relatively soft nature of EPO means that sharp trailing and rear edges are easily damaged. I'd like to reinforce some areas with a heat shrink material such as LighTex or Solarfilm- any thoughts or suggestions.

I might need to use some thin plywood or plastic to reinforce one area - what glues are usable with EPO, does anyone know?

I'd also like to paint some areas of the machines to aid contrast and orientation. What paints are safe to use on EPO please?

Thanks,

John B
