                        I just bought a 1:1 scale T-800 endoskull from the terminator I also bought a model of boba fett, They're both vinyl kits, is there anything I need to be aware of before I start these? Special glu/paints or anything? Thanks- Pat

                        They need to be washed and primed, then you can use any paint and technique you want.

                        what about the alclad laquers will that react to the vinyl?

                        I have no idea, you might try painting some on scrap vinyl from your kit and find out, try some with a primer underneath also
