Thread: Painting white stryofoam?

Tweet

Any recommendations for the best type of paint to use on white styrofoam. I'm looking to augment my boarded up windows with some faux boards of styrofoam. I'm hoping to make to with white over pink foam for the meager cost savings

A couple good coats of latex paint should work well. There is a thread somewhere I can't find it now... that shows how they made foam look like boards.

You can use any paint that you paint the walls in your house (not oil based) and creepycathy has those boards on her windows.

I use real boards LOL Im glad that is one less thing I have to do each year.

Thanks!

At my old place we had real boards taken up from shipping palettes which worked well and looked great. New place has large picture windows which are too large of a span for the palette boards. :^(
