I've been researching different paints, and they all seem pretty good. I'm just wondering what types you guys use

Good old-fashioned Rustoleum seems to work just fine for me.

I usually use duplicolor automotive paint, but have used a variety of different paints.

Also check out the Paint & Decals collection of topics in the Forum. Lots of other chat and tips in there too.

Personally, I've always just used the Rustoleum spray paint from Home Depot or wherever. Nothing fancy...but I also never made any super details builds anyway.
