I did do enamel panel lining once. Didn't know Tamiya had a product specifically for this purpose back then, so I bought these
a) Tamiya Black Enamel paint b) Tamiya Enamel thinner Used another bottle to mix the black enamel (so that it is not too thick) with the thinner at a 1:1 ratio. After spamming it over the panel lines and it has dried, I used a cotton bud dipped in some of the enamel thinner to wipe off the excess. |

QUOTE(amir_kaldra @ May 25 2016, 09:41 AM) Wow. Thank you for you kind reply, Sir. I actually went to the Gundam Base in Seoul. After conversion I found that the model kits there are more expensive than Malaysia. Not sure about the paints though. Technically they are flammable, so it would be best not bring something on board the plane which could blow it up. Currently I am on industrial attachment in Korea. Noted that "put it inside my checked-in luggage from KK to Penang" no problem. Also, I will return to Malaysia by end of year. Just worry if I stock up my paint here, later cant bring to Malaysia.  . Ask Korea pos, they said they dont accept paint. Only choice check in luggage.  Currently wife complain, gundam box so big. how to bring back to Malaysia. Need to stop buying.   |
