For a leg cast, i am wondering if it is safe to use spray paint if the color i want isn't available?

Depenmt son what the cast is made from. If it is plaster, it isn't a good idea as the paint might soak in and weaken the plaster. If it is fibreglass, it should be ok to paint itFor a leg cast, i am wondering if it is safe to use spray paint if the color i want isn't available?
Hi, You could try paint. Even air brush. But if you get a cast just get white. Then you can always purchase a roll of casting tape or two from a supplier and you can change the color every week if you want. Simply just overlay a roll of casting tape on your existing cast. You just need tape, room temp water, gloves and someone to unroll it quick before it dries. I've see cool colors like orange and yellow. Or desiges like camo or soccer. Also I've seen something else cooler. Casttoos. They are sold in butterflies or sunflowers. stuff like that. If I ever had a cast that is what I would do.


Here is the links to check out:


Printed casting tape. Just get a roll or two:
