Will a wash using Artist Oils be okay over a coat of Enamel Gloss Coat?

Artist Oils never dry.They will work.Just handle w/care.

A simple answer to your question is NO. If your glosscoat is enamel and you run a solvent type wash it will lift and wrinkle the paint, specially over large areas.  

You need a barrier when using a solvent wash over enamels. I would not risk it over lacquers either just in case the milder wash reacts on the lacquer. On cured acrylics you may use an acrylic wash without a barrier as these two do not react the same as solvent types.

I use Future all the time as a barrier on my enamels and it works just fine. It just needs to cure at least for a day or two.

An alternative to future is Alclad Aquagloss which is water based and cures faster than Future.

i have oil washed and water washed over Tamiya, MMA, PolyS, and Vallejo/Vallejo Air WITHOUT a barrier with no problems. not even an acrylic semigloss or flat overspray on the paint. i do prime everything prior to painting. the pnly time i had a problem was dulcoat over Tamiya which ran like crazy over the MMA camo. After walking away for a day and learning some new words i was able to turn this into a positive.

So if I don't want to use Future would the Tamiya Acrylic Gloss Coat be the safest bet? I know where I can get some locally but it's to far of a drive to do it tonight.... oh well. Maybe I should try my MM Enamel Gloss Coat on a small separate cockpit piece to see how it goes. Say one of the seats!

Yes, to be honest, I am not sold on using Future as I have heard a mixed bag of results with it. It is even hard to find in stores (I have been looking for it everywhere).  Also, I would rather not try to airbrush it as that also seems finicky.  For adding clear coats I am still okay with using a spray can which will keep things simple and quick.

 

I fear this will not end well if you do. I have had a couple of occasions where I didn't properly apply my future coat to protect enamels paints before adding the wash. It has the same effect as paint stripper.

The only way to know is to try a test.I'm skeptical.

next time you go to the supermarket buy a bottle of Future floor polish. It'll last quite a while, stores well and airbrushed ok.
