Well Adski did have a couple of good questions, that relate to this forum too. :wink: I'm sure you guys down under might have some better solutions for him as well. Plus, you guys are in the know of what paints you guys can use there. Even here in the states, you can get a mix of what you can and can't use. :roll:
