I am newbie I want to get into painting my jigs which is better paint for a new guy the powder paints or the vinyl paints? I would only be doing small batches for person use or for friends. Thanks in advance.

I haven't used vinyl, but powder is fairly easy to use and TOUGH. I have used nail polish also. Looks really good but not as tough.

I'd go with powder. I was a nail polish nut for a long while but do love how strong the cured powder is.

POWDER!!!

I switched to powder from some viynl. That stuff was giving me major headaches and I got away from it. My vote would be powder.

Powder all the way!

Powder! I used to use vinyl but as my buddy Fatman has already mentioned, the fumes will give you a banging headache unless you have an extremely well ventilated areas to paint. The other thing about powder is 1 coat finish, no need for white base coat, I really liked that!!

Powder all the way!

Powder for me too. Nail polish is good if you have a color you can't find in powder.

Ive used vinyl, powder, and nail polish. I like powder out of all 3 of them. But on 1/64-1/180-1/100 I use vinyl still,

Powder paint without a doubt. I used to use vinyl paint, and it smelled really bad, and it also bothered my lungs.

I use both pp and fp. Use the fp & pp for UL jigs
