QUOTE(OhNooy @ Dec 8 2013, 01:00 AM) Anyone using this? I have this a few month already and still watery and yes you can use Zippo to wash it up since it just a ready made enamel wash solution. Remind me getting the black one since that always sold out. ![]() Will the paint dry up very fast in the bottle? As my progress is very slow, 1 kit take me >1 months to build. So I will only use this accent color not so frequently. After using, can use Zippo to wash the excess? Since this is enamel. Thanks! |

QUOTE(gundamsp01 @ Dec 8 2013, 02:33 PM) nazrul90 btw, my senior in gunpla told me to buy some industrial thinner for cleaning purpose since that is less costly compared to use mr. leveling thinner. May i ask, where do you get ur cheap thinner and what thinner to get for cleaning lacquer? Nearby my area only ace hardware, and mr.diy gundamsp01err.. I dont sure about that, because there is rubber inside the airbrush so I scare it will eat the rubber if use industrial thinner try buy the 1000ml hobby thinner only for cleaning airbrush yes, it is pricey but it long lasting too This post has been edited by nazrul90: Dec 8 2013, 02:38 PM |

hi guys! got a question, if i going to paint metallic paint on my kit (inner frame) what kind of topcoat should i be using?
and by referring to this website on method 1, it mentioned that semi-gloss is needed but i only have gloss coat, can that be used as alternative? http://gunplacore.blogspot.com/2013/04/tut...paints-and.html |
