i've always used acrylic. If you take a piece of dash to a paint store they can colour maych it for you and even put it in a can. Clean each piece thouroughly (i use a nail brush and kitchen spray to remove grease n grime) Let dry Wipe with cloth soaked in thinners Spray I find thinners works better as a cleaning agent than prepsol. I've done at least 6 or 7 dashes this way never had one peel or flake
