I just painted my 75mm Anti-tank gun a Dark Green. I am using Enamels, so how many days should i wait until i can paint on the camo?

I wait 24 hours, but the more you can afford the better

Depends on if you're airbrushing. If you're using an airbrush and the same kind of paint (enamel, acrylic, etc.) You can put on a camo coat in a very short time. Even as little as 15 minutes. But if you're hand brushing, or changing paint classes, wait as stated above.

Good luck.

I must be an impatient sort of fella.......... I brush paint, and depending on each individual paint, I usually am doing stuff to the model within an hour.
