Swanny has a good way to apply Whites or Yellows, if you are brush painting with an Polly S or Scale Acrylic type paint, try this: 1.) paint the primer coat Lt Grey, let dry at least over night, 2.) first coat of W or Y,let dry for a day or 2, 3.) then thin some of the color W or Y down with distilled water, 5 drops of paint with 2 drops of water, let dry for a day or 2, 4.) 4 drops of paint to 2 drops of water, let dry for a day or 2, 5.) 1 to 1 paint to water and let dry and this will rid the brush marks, you could use the same ratios with Testors but instead of water use Acryl thinner, but the best results is use an airbrush, first prime with LT Grey the shoot the W or Y color and let dry

and i thought using an airbrush was a pain in the behind!!! [:0]
if that's what it takes to with a brush, i'm gonna stick to my airbrush: one coat (no primer) and she's done!!
Kind regards,
Nicholas
