Thank you for making a tutorial that doesn't just gloss over all the issues. It's so annoying watching a tutorial where they "just use plasti dip" and everything's perfect
Very helpful!
I've watched so many videos trying to get into a beginner's level of painting EVA foam and nothing made it as simple as this. I don't want to spend on more expensive materials until i find out if I want to keep doing this, so it was down to Plasti-dip or mod podge. So many tutorials said avoid mod podge, but I've never been successful with my few crappy attempts at plasti-dip. Thank you SO much for explaining the pros and cons of each! Instantly subscribed.
Thank you! Your tutorial was super helpful. What happens if you over-prime with Mod-Podge? The EVA foam armor I’m making recommends three coats. Is that too much?
“Paint does not come off” *Proceeds to try to make the paint come off*
Thank you for the informational video! I think I'll go the mod podge route as I don't really have a safe place to use plati-dip. One suggestion for your video is to use better lighting. The image is kind of drab! Thanks for the upload!
Thanks for the advice! Also, with any aerosol paint/primer, you should spray at a 45-degree angle. Which is what you did in the video so you're good!
is it possible to do a few coats of mod podge first to get the shine and then spray with plastidip for the durability?
I love your humor lol
Oh, I'm just starting out and I'm old. But the doge pug is the the way too go. Cheers.
would a wet sanding sponge instead of sandpaper work for mod podge?
quick question: I'm making a piece of armor with a lot of tiny details, so I made light cuts in the foam and then use a heat gun so they become more visible. can I use plasti dip on that? or will it fill up the details? I've never made a piece with this much detail before, so I'm open for any advice 🙂
It should be all good, just make sure you're not putting thick coats on. I actually prefer plastip with small details as it doesnt run and pool as quickly as mod podge or flexbond.
Can you Prime duct tape and do this same process?
After priming with mod podge, how long should i wait before painting?
Probably once it dries
@@shaykireas yes but it takes time to dry AND cure, so what I was asking was how long until thats all done. It's about 4 weeks for a full cure btw.
Can you use heat after sealing your eva foam?
Like heat gun?
You *can* but the paint will start to warp if you do because the paint heats up too. It'll start to bubble or crack on you. So I'd definitely recommend heat shaping before you paint it.
There’s no way it took you a day to make that lol
