I use MM Acryl exclusively and I absolutely love it. It sprays on nicely and can be touched up by hand without worrying if the hue will be the same. Adhesion is only an issue if you don't prep the plastic. Darren...what are you using to thin the Acryl? And what are you using for your gloss coat prior to decals?

And what are you using for your gloss coat prior to decals? Thanks, Bob I don't thin it at all, at least not new bottles. If it starts to thicken, I use the MM Acryl Thinner. I don't gloss coat, either. I smooth the paint with sanding clothes, then brush a little bit of Future where the decal will go. It saves the gloss step. I've rarely had a decal silver using this method. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I use a Iwata HP-CH+ with a 0.3m needle as my general purpose airbrush and an Iwata CM-B with an 0.18mm needle for really fine work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
