Curt B Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Okay, so I lied about the last thread I started about Spitfire questions being thee last one 😊   This is really a paint question.  I searched but didn't find a satisfactory answer.  I just sprayed a 50/50 mixture of Tamiya clear gloss X22/Mr. Color Leveling Thinner onto my Spitfire.  The next step is to begin weathering with oil based washes.  How long should I let the X22 layer dry/cure before starting the oil washes?  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
modelingbob Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I usually try to wait 24 hours before I start the weathering or decal process. X22/MCLT is usually dry to the touch in an hour (if not faster), but I still try to wait 24 hours. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
