A couple of weeks ago, you folks gave me great info about fixatives for color (and art) on “raw” foam (thanks, Jim!)…I was just wondering…what about sealants or GROUNDS - of some type - BEFORE you apply color?! Do any of you do this…prep your shaped blank for color with some form of ground - for greater “ease” of application…or to gain more uniformity? All help is greatly appreciated! A hui hou!..Tom.
