Oh no! Another Future question for Swanny!

Tools, Techniques, and Reference Materials Painting and airbrushing

I know from your article you can mix future with tamiya flat but can you use testor’s acryl flat too? I do not have easy access to tamiya paints but the LHS has plenty of the testor’s stuff.
TIA

Can someone help me out here?

According to Swanny’s article, Model Master acrylics will mix with Future, but he warns that too much flat in the mix will make it go white.

For the minimal cost involved, it might be worth a try on a test subject.

Thanks stinger!

I havent read the article, but why would you mix these togeather? If future adds gloss and flat coats make things flat, why not just spray a flat coat staight out of the bottle?

Having a coat of acrylic plastic over the top of everything (including decals!) to protect it is a good thing [8D]
