Question for you guys, if the paint on your model is enamel, what’s the best method for applying a wash?
You should protect your basecoat with an acrylic clear.Future Floor Polish works great or any model related acrylic clear.Then you can wash wit oils or ensamels without harming anything.
I personally like to use this stuff,very easty to use,nice results,almost foolproof
Spray Future or a clear acrylic, and then apply oil washes.
Thanks guys, seems simple enough!
Ty TY Ty for this tip. You guys just saved me $ 20 bucks as I was just about to go to the LHS to buy some more Testors gloss laquer but i read this first. i have a whole bottle of Future and now I can use it for more than dipping canopies.
Ah , Yes , BUT !
When you do the weathering don’t forget there are streaks on the plane from sitting on the ground that run vertically too .
