Hey dude, naah, you can\'t paint latex masks with pure acrylics. That will crack. You need to get either latex paint or just mix your latex paint yourself. If you wanna airbrush the mask, take latex and mix acrylics in it. Then water it down until it has the right consistancy for your airbrush.
You really have to use rubber-based paints...anything else will crack and ruin your mask. :yucky:
