mark poulson Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Have you tried using an air brush paint that's designed to be heat set, so heat won't bother it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobP Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 I like using Ceramcoat acrylic paint for eyes. It’s very thick and I daub it on with a Swisspers cotton swab (firmer than Qtips). Let it air dry for a couple of hours, add a black iris with a smaller paint dauber. I recommend letting eye paint air dry to avoid cracking. You can topcoat it with just about anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
