normally i read here people left it for 1 day at least before start spraying... so i also do the same...

also depends wat type of weathering u wan....
different effects uses different methods to do...

Do you know of any other shop which carries Mr Color Spray? The variety of colors that TM carries is somewhat limited. I'm looking for metallic black and metallic blue(The Tamiya Metallic Blue which I have is a little to light)

hmmm... i got those from TM la.. small paint plates which is quite useful.. not expensive.. maybe raise price or wat i duno la...
if u're using for paint, can get those ceramic types from shops... but duno where to get them..

hlj sell one izzit same size as tm sell or not

empty jar got many sizes one la

aiyo
its different bottle...

the one tm sell one is like surfacer bottle...means its short and wide inside and also 2 layer of cover caps...means air tight and also metal cap cover

the one tamiya one are like their own acrylic paint la...open inside and no more second plastic cap inside already

Ok. So sand the thick top coated model while gradually increasing the grit of the sand paper. How many layers of top coat is considered thick? And how many cans of top coat is likely to be needed(not sure about you guys, but I intend to paint and polish each individual piece before assembling, with the exception of the internal skeleton)?

Model in question: MG Strike Freedom(I know most ppl use flat top coat for their gundams, but I want to try and make mine shine ).

Regarding the sandpaper, those types of grit(600,1000,1500,2000) can be found from art shops or from hardware stores? Anyone have a specific recommendation of grits to use on a model?

who have Gundam Unicorn ? will the etching decal fall off easily ?

i see ... i just know tat got so many types of decals .. haha , i only made 2 HG before ....

guys,
isit ok let the paint bottle open for a while?
i mean directly paint from bottle.. close only after some painting..
won't the paint in the bottle getting thicker n dry faster?

^if i just store in the original Mr. Color bottles, ok ar?

Better if you invest a spray booth. Even if you wear mask, the spray mist is still in the air for sometime. So how good the mask, the smell is still there. And the smell is not danger. But the spray paint mist will get to your lung. Is it poison.

Maybe add another rm100-200 can get a sparmax comp and a double action AB. Alot better than the tamiya set.
