Hi all,
I have been doing some research on reverse wash paint on sinanju. Was wondering where do you guys normally purchase the paints for this. And is it okay if I paint using brush directly? as I do not have an airbrush at the moment. |

QUOTE(nazrul90 @ Dec 29 2015, 12:33 AM) you need this 2 paint: Noted on that.1.lacquer based paint, this is a 1st layer paint the color is for emblem, either gold, silver or other color 2. enamel based paint, this is for black color, 2nd layer paint and you also need zippo lighter fluid to clean the emblem off to reveal the 1st layer paint hand painting is okay but you will have problem with tiny gap to reverse wash on shield, like I did with my SD & HG Sinanju  Might do some testing before I proceed on sinanju directly  Which brand of lacquer & enamel paint did you use on your sinanju? is there any difference between the brand (Eg. Tamiya, Mr.color, etc) or its more towards preference? This post has been edited by Homura15: Dec 29 2015, 12:58 AM |

Hi All,
Quick question. What kind of thinner do you all use to clear your airbrush kits/brushes? Also, I am going to use enamel paint for sinanju reverse wash. Is there a specific thinner i need to use to thin the paint? Thanks! |
