I've got a bunch of closed cell foam floats that came without any paint. They're difficult to keep track of on the water. I painted fl. orange tips on a couple with spray enamel but it didn't work well. Also checked with a couple hobby shops to see if they had something that would stick to foam and not crack and flake off. No luck there.
Any suggestions on a type (and brand) of paint for foam floats?

thanks.....MikeT

I would give Lurecoat a try. Comes in a jar at most sporting goods stores.

Use the stuff they use to coat rope ends. I think its called dip it or something like that. IT comes in florescent colors now and is flexible.
