My grandson graduates from high school on June 13th.

They are allowed to paint (airbrush) their mortar boards? What kind of airbrush paint should i use on this (cloth)? I have some HOK paints already.

Can i use my same airbrush that i use for my HOK paints (Iwata Eclipse)?

As of this moment, he is #1 in his class of 300+ kids and will be attending William and Mary in the fall majoring in biology. He's a great kid and we are very proud of him!

Thanks in advance.

airbrush on a sheet of aluminum & attach it with pop rivits. It will make a longer lasting panel that could end up on the wall long after the novelty of his H.S. mortar board hanging around has worn off.

Steve,

I use Createx for painting on T-shirts and leather jackets. My motorcycle jacket was done about 7yrs ago and still looks great same with the T-shirts I've done. I'll send you a few picts, or just go to my website and look at airbrushing, all of it was done with createx paint. You'll need to put a clear coat over it (also made by createx and it's a matte finish) and either use a heat gun or heat press to help set the colors.

You should be able to get these at your local hobby/drawing/painting type store.
