Try water with some food coloring. If you can spray that witout running, you'll be able to spray anything like a champ!

Excellent advise BigDaddy.

Try mixing food coloring with "FUTURE"... that with acrylic floor polish. It makes a nice consistent paint and acts like it also.

Hi guys thanks for all the advice and tips i dont know about Future acrylic polish as i think that is only an American product and i am in the UK but the water and the food colouring sounds good i will give it a go as its got to be cheaper than £2.50 a pot approx $5 where you are and as you can imagine it could be quite costly practicing
Thanks again

Allan, the web site name is Future Floor Wax, the name may be different in the U K but I am sure that that you can buy it in your local stores

SC Johnson Floor Care. Clean Floors. Done Right.

Then again I guess any acrylic floor polish would work.

Hi guys i found it in the UK it goes under the name of Johnson's Clear
i dont know why they cant call it the same everywhere
Thanks again

HAHA no kiddin', why do they have to make everything so difficult?

[redneck]

Allen, I agree, Johnson Clear sounds better in that it tell the consumer about the product
