This is really more of a finishing question but I could'nt find a forum for it. I used Future for my clear gloss before decals on my 1/72 F-15E Strike Eagle. Now that i used decal solvent on the jet the future turned white. this seems to happen on all my models and i'm not sure how to fix it. Does anyone have a suggestion as which clear gloss you guys use that wont do this?

Thanks guys, Kurt

Don't use so much solvent or at least wipe away the excess. If you're getting silvering once it's dried reapply the solvent (not setting solution) and poke all around with the tip of a needle. Again don't apply too much or decal may lift. You'll watch the silvering disappear.

I use future exclusively and I get the white marks occasionally but not all the time. You can add more layers of future to get it shinier but if put over flat paint you're never going to get a new car show room shine it does have its limits.
