Paint for eva FOAM: what is the best?

Hello everyone, I have tried to find a single source for paint solutions for foam, and can only come up with little bits through a search. So here it is...

What type of spray cans (other than automotive paint) have people had success with? By success I at least mean doesn't readily chip, and will last for more than a year, and looks excellent, etc.

I'm completing my first EVA foam IM mark iii, and am PVA coating all pieces, then coating a few in smooth on 320 (if the 320 is successful in trials). So basically, what paint would adhere well to the PVA and/or plastic? Recommendations for primers?

A few things I've heard: Krylon Fusion for plastics, Rustoleum plastic primer, and Gesso. But I'm wondering if I can venture out a bit into other paints not labled "for plastics..." which are few.

So feel free to share your ideas!

THANK YOU EVERYONE! (y)thumbsup:thumbsup
