Brad-M Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Gents, Has anyone used this new flat clear yet? Is it just a mix of their gloss and flat base? Is it dead flat or does it leave an egg shell sheen to it? TIA Brad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smithery Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Brad, in the words of Bones McCoy.......he's dead Jim. Their clear flat is a dead flat finish. For egg sheen, you need their Satin Clear. The new Tamiya Flat Clear is almost as good as the Gunze. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Scooby Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Ok, thanks Kev! Brad Brad, I saw a bunch of those bottles of flat in Imperial last week in Vancouver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brad-M Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Thanks, my LHS here on the Island has it now too. Cheers Brad ps: So where & when in the next RMMC show, any idea? Brad, I saw a bunch of those bottles of flat in Imperial last week in Vancouver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scooby Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Thanks, my LHS here on the Island has it now too. Cheers Brad ps: So where & when in the next RMMC show, any idea? I hope so, I am running the show. We sent out the information to all the clubs in BC, hopefully it is being forwarded to the proper people. It is in Edmonton this year at the Alberta Aviation Museum. Here is a link to the website: http://www.wcrmc.ca/ The website is always going to be the same regardless of where it is, Edmonton or Calgary. We are doing this for continuity. I have a discount code for the Coast Hotel in downtown Edmonton. Vintage Wings is going to be in attendance and will be selling rides in their Pitts Sterman. The Museum is also trying to get Vintage Wings P-51D in attendance. As well, the Military Vehicles Preservation Group will also be attending as will some of the modern stuff. I personally dropped off posters in the Vancouver shops. If I send you posters for Victoria could you deliver them to the proper people? Special Categories should be up soon. But to name a few that we know here is a partial listing: Best Royal Theme Best Titanic Best Space Shuttle Best Blue with a Hook I was away for the week and a lot of sponsorship came in so I will have more special category information up on the website soon. Hope this helps, please email or contact me for any additional information. Please pass the word. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brad-M Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hi Gary, Yeah, I forgot about that, so I wandered over to the website. Not sure if I'll be attending, but would make for a nice road trip :) Cheers Brad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mike C Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 For egg sheen, you need their Satin Clear. When did Tamiya release satin clear in 10ml bottle? Never seen one... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smithery Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 When did Tamiya release satin clear in 10ml bottle? Never seen one... Around the same time I believe. X-35 is the code. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike C Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Around the same time I believe. X-35 is the code. X-35.... hmmm... I don't think we get that here in Australia. I don't remember ever seeing one here, anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
