Hello Everyone ,

I am still new in Gunpla-ing

I wanna ask that for MG Sinanju , plan to make it glossy as polished

Is it possible to do it with only snap fit and give it a Top Coat with Mr hobby Or Tamiya Top Coat Gloss Spray on it ?

thank you very much

as u say spray top coat > wet sand 2000 grid > top coat > Wet sand 2000 grid > Compound fine > Compound Finishing.

no need to put wax to polish it ?
i saw a tutorial that after compound , the last stage is wax .
right ?

Do we need to clean or sand the part before we spray top coat gloss on it ?

if we clean with water or sand , then the dry decal will come off right ?

kinda confused on it

any advice or note to take care when spraying top coat gloss ?

as my survey for top coat flat.
point to take note is
1. 30 cm spray,
2. movement of spraying
3. hot n clear day ( humidity low )

but cant find any for gloss top coat. or i miss out something ?

Another question, maybe is dejavu question.
How to keep or use our lining pen or marker pen so that it will last longer.
any caution need to take not ?
For example for 0.02 lining pen ?
thank you

MAybe is some deja vu question

Is Tamiya Spray Can consider as lacquer spray can ?
the label in tamiya spray can named " for plastic "
does it suitable to let it coat with the oil based top coat which is
Grey Colour spray can ?

2. Is Mr Hobby Spray can also in lacquer ?

About water slide decal ,
Mind i Ask a simple question ?

Does the Mr Hobby Mark Softener used when the decal still wet or dry ?
And i saw in some forum state that using warm water would be better than cold water.
any comment about this ?
thanks

ookay ~ but if u remove the excess water with tissue , then it will become dry right ?
bit confusing ~

ok ~ i almost get it ~ but need to hands on to testing ..
thanks sifoo guidance.

btw ~ can anyone tell me what is the different between ,
Mr Hobby White Base 1000 VS Mr Hobby White Surfacer 1000
I heard that White Base is more opaque and shine compare to white surfacer
and white base has a potential as a primer or surfacer.
correct if im mistake

thank you

okay ~ almost get it ~
but one more doubt is ,
what is the usage for priming ?
check error and ??

can i straight have Mr HObby White base without Surfacer ,
any disavantage of it ?

For the White base information .

There still a small doubt ,

After Surfacer > White Base

Do i need Sand again for the White base since White Base is not a surfacer , wonder need to sand it TO stronghold the adhere of the Colour Spray after that

Ok ~

So are paint adhere very important ?
what is the downturn if paint adhere not good ?

as i know , masking problem- paint will intend crack or come out after masking.

other than that ?
will the colour become dull ? or anything change ?
