This is what i used and it seemed to dry completely: Rust-Oleum 249087 Painter's Touch Multi Purpose Spray Paint, 12-Ounce, Matte Clear https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002BWORZE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_eoIpDb9090GGB

I already tried the 3m rubberized undercoating with automotive paint next and then the clear coat on top of that on an old final mouse to test it out and it turned out GREAT looks and feel wise ... but I made the mistake of trying to coat the side buttons as well and ended up making them too bulky to fit through the hole...also I think I just did too many coatings of the undercoating in general on the entire body which made the side button hole smaller as well....so I just sort of stopped messing with it for the time being seeing as I can’t really order replacement side buttons from FM..

I will definitely be trying it out on another old mouse soon though to perfect what I learned the first time around and tweak that before I do it to a mouse I actually use. I’ll post a picture of my fm in a bit though...

Suit: Cosplaysky Medium. Jacket (Under the vest thing) was short. Didn't tuck into the pants well. I rolled it up and put it under the vest. Under shirt was too small and hood too big so I used a scuba hood. Belt was too large as well, had my mom sew it to make it shorter. I'm 5'7, 40" chest, 32" waist for reference.

Helmet: Xcoser (Paid $30 for it on eBay. Came with a flaw so ended up with 2!). Painted it Rustoleum wine and black. I liked the black face so kept it. 2 coats of flat clear coat. Lenses are made from a soda bottle and car tints then I glued them in.

Chain and gun were from Amazon.

Kept the boots and gloves from my black suit Daredevil from last year.

Happy how this turned out. Won second place in a cosplay contest!

I'll need to revisit the eyes in the future. These were done with scraps at home.

And is bigger and cheaper than testors. Another good idea might be getting a top coat for air brushes and airbrush one on.

Yeah, most spray enamel will work for wood/plastic/metal. Just check the can..you can usually pick it up at any home improvement location. https://www.amazon.com/Rust-Oleum-249087-Painters-Purpose-12-Ounce/dp/B002BWORZE/ref=asc_df_B002BWORZE/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=193184886406&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8150720537796560605&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030984&hvtargid=pla-308030796454&psc=1

I think it’s a great buy!

I was thinking of using linseed oil (though I don't know if i'm supposed to mix it with turpentine and vinegar like some say?) But I think linseed oil gives the wood a shine and it yellows over time. I was also looking at dead flat/ matte finishes like this or this or this. I guess it doesn't have to be waterproof, though I have another project that I need to waterproof some wood and though i should get something that works for both lol. Mostly curious if anyone has any specific recommendations.
