Painting and Stamping
4x20.gif (55 bytes)
Milk and clay paints come in a wide range of colors and add a natural warmth and natural tone. Milk paint is a kid-friendly way to decorate trains. A broad spectrum of paints made from milk casein and food grade emulsifiers and preservatives are available. These smell great, but I haven't tried tasting them... Clay paint can be used to color wash the modules. Custom product names and corporate branding can be inked onto painted rolling stock. Create your own company names with imaginative products and create custom rubber stamps - or write directly on the cars with permanent ink.

4x20.gif (55 bytes)A child-safe finish is just as important. Apply a matte coat to protect painted train cars and features with images applied. Choose a finish that is safe for children - like a varnish that is non-allergenic, non-toxic, and free from volatile organic compounds.
