sorry to start a new thread on this but i really haven't found a deff spray can paint that will work and not eat the foam that i can buy and find easy like at a hardware store...also should the rudder and elevator be a different paint be used on these since they do have that covering over the foam

It works just fine on all parts, will not eat the foam. It helps the adhesion to lightly sand/scratch all surfaces that you plan to paint. I recommend a 400 grit sand paper. I also wet sand my plastic parts. Drop me a message if you need any help.

This is what I'm planing to paint my plane. I first going to get alot of flying time in first before I do it though. Attachments:
