Also a quick question. I was trying to come up with a head for a Roderick Strong custom and the elite 3 Christian head is just too costly. However I was thinking that maybe Zack Ryder would work. I'm not sure which Ryder head would be best but I was thinking of possibly using the basic series 17 one (on a dean Malenko body).
What do you guys think?

I'll look for it and PM you if I find it. |

Thanks! I assume it was on the crotch part of the figure? Acetone eats/burns the harder plastics. Even though you painted over it, it sounds like the acetone is still eating away at the new paint. The only way I know to fix it is with lacquer thinner until the residue goes away and then brush on clear semi gloss and then you can repaint it whatever color you had it and seal it again. |

Yeah it was the crotch piece. I acetone off the logo to leave just the black, then I painted just the design I wanted but left it black tights an then used the sealer to which it turned grey on me except for the painted part. So I guess I will try the lacquer thinner....where could I buy some? |

I spray mine in the bathroom with the fart fan on  |

 Decided to start stabbing at my first Surfer Sting, Based off his Match for the U.S. Title at a Clash Of Champs. Question: The sealer I use is a Citadel spray can non-gloss, it tends 2 not work as well, or remove coloring & smear paint apps if touched at all once applied. Any recommendations of Sealer Brands? & do you guys use more than 1 coat to finalize your work? |
