For the industrial spray can, i usually use DPI/Anchor brand. nod.gif
Works the same and extremely cheap!!! drool.gif
just be careful sometime the metallic paint particle is thick, cant get a very smooth surface...
Rm5-7 per can, 400ml compare to Tamiya/mr hobby spray can which cost RM30 per can, 100ml... sweat.gif
Even if anything wrong happen, just use mrhobby thinner to clean off~~ whistling.gif
CAUTION!!! DO NOT, i mean DO NOT EVER try using industrial thinner, model kits surface will melt and here goes your modal kits...! shakehead.gif

I got try using Rm3 punya industrial thinner, can clean off paint very fast but..... Too fast until your gunpla surface also melt... doh.gif
At the end i need to sand kao kao and repaint again.. cry.gif .After that, i swear that will never use industrial thinner to thin or clean model kits... wink.gif

They do have matt paint, i personally like to use matt black as undercoat. nod.gif
If you want use glossy clear, try Number 1 (the code for Anchor/DPI paint), is glossy clear. rolleyes.gif But hard to get even surface though... sweat.gif

Anyone here used My Hobby or Gaia thinner before?
They are much cheaper than Mr Hobby thinner so am thinking of switching over if they work the same.

well, seeing as how you can mix Gaia and Mr Hobby paints together, their thinners should be the same as well. Gaia paint = WIN btw

I've mention previously. I'm using GAIA thinner with Mr. Hobby paints. No problem so far. Just use it like Mr. Hobby Thinner.
