[Rockhounds] Paint

[pmodreski at aol.com]

I have painted numbers thus on rock samples, and I've used ordinary white enamel model paint as the base.? As per what (Mary & Mary) just added, after writing the numbers or names on in permanent ink and letting it dry well, I would also coat it with a layer of clear nail polish.

Friends: I am making "rock kits" for grand kids out of cigar boxes with segments of wood paint stirrirs. My question is what kind of white paint?
should I use to paint a spot on each rock to put a number for the kit index? I was considering white enamel model paint, but I sure could use your advice. Thanks and Merry Christmas.?
