If possible, it is best to paint the wooden deck on it when it was first bought.
If you paint after attaching to the kit, the probability of the paint getting into the adhesive surface through the cut surface increases.
This increases the probability that the wooden deck will be lifted.
Also, when painting on wooden deck with water-based acrylic paint,
it is recommended to dry quickly by using a hair dryer at room temperature.
The picture below shows an example of painting using an airbrush on the Infini model Graf Zeppelin wooden deck.
