I'm guessing its less than 2oz if you can thin it out and fill the dropper bottle. How far will that thinned paint get you, in terms of say you were painting a 6" figure a solid color- would one bottle be enough, or more than enough? Sorry about all the questions LASH- I appreciate your answers.
-phil!
One bottle of V-Color thinned out 50/50 ratio gets you quite a bit of paint. You could paint several figures with it.

confirmed with Glenn. No go on V-Color at S7. His research suggests that it's even illegal to have it here!

Do you have to put primer on the figures first, or do they take the paint as long as the figure is clean; non-greasy, ect.?
Thank you.

Thank you.
primer is not necessary, but some use it when they want colors to look a bit brighter

what is a good way to get paint out of small crevices when giving a figure an acetone rub down?
i am trying to clean off my mutant evil cell and i cannot get the paint out of places like under his nose and areas like that.
should i be really getting this thing soaked? i tried using toothpicks, but they dont hold the acetone for long enough

speaking of tips... I prefer to use cotton q-tips dipped in acetone... more control, the cotton absorbs the paint, and you don't have to bother cleaning up a used q-tip as you would with a toothbrush.
