Kid Friendly Paints for PLA? (self.3dprinting)

submitted 11 months ago by OZFive to c/3dprinting

5 comments fedilink hide all child comments

So my daughter is loving her new Ender 2 Pro and printing out Harry Potter figurines to paint. We have been using acrylic paint pens (easier at this age), they have been good, not great. We are having a Harry Potter themed b-day party for her and her friends. I am going to print out a batch of Harry, Ron, and Hermione characters for them all to paint after the play time limit at the trampoline park ends.

was wondering... What kid friendly paint works best for PLA?

It's not specifically targetted at kids, but Make Anything has a video I like on painting prints: https://youtu.be/5Kazrg5xAqY?t=686
