a quick question for those using airbrush for candy look.
do you recommended using mr.surfacer 1000 or 1200 better? heard that mr.surfacer 1200 need lesser thinner ratio which not worth than 1000. what do you think?

no need to use primer
use gloss black as base, silver on top and lastly the candy color

currently working on commission build
I will post picture here once done

1:2 to 1:3, depends on your preference
higher ratio requires painting more layers

for me who is lazy, I use 1:1.5, 1 layer is enough tongue.gif
but the AB has higher tendency to get stuck
which masking tape did you use?
use toothpick to press down the sides of the masking tape to ensure it's fully covered
