I’ve gotta repaint a scratchbuilt truck, but can’t easily mask it off to airbrush it so will have to brush it…I’ve brushed Humbrol mattes and they’re very good, but the color I’ll be using is available in gloss only. Anybody have any experience in brushing gloss Humbrol? TIA
brushing gloss is same as matt, but getting a good gloss is a matter of correct thickness/thinness of paint. i’m not sure its something that can be described. more a matter of trying and practice.
[:)] Yes i have extensif experience with humbrol enamels i do cars and my best results is with a 2/3 paint and 1/3 tamiya thinners spraying with a Badger 150 - 7 with the medium needle , between 1.5 bar to 2 bar pressure depends on what the temp is in your hobby room , and by the way i do make use of a home made spraybooth to get rid of the overspray …
hope ths will help
