i find that mr color gloss paint is quite watery out of the bottle, but i still pour 1 or 2 drop out then mix thinner to it for easier painting

semi gloss and flat might need to add more thinner since they are very thick when out of the bottle

metallic is the same as gloss, not sure about clear type paint, i guess is same as gloss too

Added on August 30, 2011, 7:20 pmi think the industrial top coat that i used has corrode my kit, i tried to remove the top coat on the kit include the base paint (i soak in lacquer thinner and rub it), i found that the kit surface is damage, it does not appear as smooth as it used to

then after that i tried to paint on it again, it is very hard to paint because the surface is not smooth anymore, then after done painting, the corroded part seem to dry faster than other part

anyone has experienced this before?

top coat for model kit are lacquer, so far havent come across any acrylic top coat, if wont affect your paint, but make sure the paint is completely dry before apply top coat else the paint will mix with the top coat and look very ugly

take note that if you use enamel paint for panel line the paint might take a while to dry

soak the spray can in hot water for a while
