Well, I don't know if everyone will laugh at this but I use Dulux and British Paints test pots for my spraying. I do mix colours up and before weathering they don't look that great (way to bright), but after weathering they do come up really well. I had only done buildings but have started on my scratch built Oe wagons now as well.
Why do I use test pots? Well with young children, SWMBO got a good deal on a big box load of the stuff. When I got my Airbrush, I "needed" to try it out and since it was an Acrylic air brush (until I read the insructions I had no idea there was such a thing) they were to hand so I thought I would try them out and se what they were like.
I have done one wagon so far. A dark grey base coat, then a forest green top coat.
I use Floetrol to "thin" the paint. It is an Acrylic Paint Conditioner.
What I am interested in though is some sort or clear top coat to over spray the wagons once the decals have been put on them. Would dullcoat be any good? Does anyone know of a brand of clear top coat I could use?
Cheers
John
