                        Someone correct me if I am wrong but you want to paint the lacquer first, then the enamel, and lastly the acrylic. If you plan to use a primer, it may be best to use a lacquer base primer. Hope this is of some help.

                        Probably the main caution I'd have is that if you mask over the 5-O to paint the blue, tape may lift off paint. Test first.

                         Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
