Hi there!
I use artists akvarelpaint.. it's water solutionable. You can get all the
colours you ever dreamt of and used over enamels, you can remove any errors with
a moistured towel. Ps.: You have to add a drop of dishwash to your water or else
the paint will not stick, you know like "water on a goose" !
Cheers
Stevn
