I have been using pactra lacquer paint for everything on my rc body but I have a superman logo in the front and I didnt get red pactra paint. Is it safe to use the createx water based paint for it? I really dont want to order online since my LHS doesnt have it. Thanks

ALSO

what should be the final coat that will make everything stronger?

Yeah, you can spray lacquer paint over water-based and vice versa. HOWEVER! Which ever paint is already on the body must be COMPLETELY dry before you spray the next type of paint over it.

I always do a final coat of white. Brightens up the colors and gives the body a clean, professional look.
