Here are the deets: I used various indoor and outdoor paints, whatever
I could find on discount (great selection) in the colors I needed at
Kelly Moore in Oakland on Telegraph. I had a few more colors custom
mixed in an interior flat latex at Home Depot. First; a white Kilz
primer over all the surfaces front and back, second; two coats
interior color, three coats on all colors exterior plus spray
metallics on top tier of the roof. Finally, all the interior and
exterior was painted with a clear water based varnish sprinkled with
pearlescent flakes to add shimmer.
Most of the seams (tape hinges) were created first, then painted over
with the primer and other paints. Some seams had to be done AFTER it
was taped to maintain the design. I reapplied the paint over the seams
again after we taped it up on the Playa.
