Its better to separate them if ur not good at estimating ... u separate the parts, then spray it all around. if u dont separate, u might leave out a few spot on ur kit when u spray, im sure u dont want that to happen.

what i usually do is, i take out all the armor parts, the n spray the internal frame as a whole piece... then i spray the armor pieces 1 by 1. quite tedious la, but you protect the internal frame from paint chipping...

If u use gloss top coat over a flat color, it will become gloss. Same otherwise.... if u use flat top coat over gloss color, the color becomes flat. U can mix primary colors together ( its written on the bottle, i assume u use Gunze Sangyo's Mr color ) but others im not sure. Flat color mix with flat color i think ok gua.... never test.

dont bubble bath ler... later water masuk ur kit cannot go out.... I just detach each part ( leg, hand, head ) and just lightly brush with an old tooth brush. If some grooves got dust and cannot be reached by the tooth brush, i just use cotton bud.

Of course you dont just brush over EVERYTHING la... certain parts if u know the decals are gonna come off, just use ur finger and wipe that part...
