I have been model building for years, but do not regularly use a gloss coat or flat coat. I paint the model, apply the decals, then call it good. Why, you ask.....I tried a flat coat years ago and it screwed up a really good (or so I thought at the time) model! I was so irritated that I had ruined a good model that I had spent so much time working on, I vowed never again to use a gloss or flat coat.
But as the years have passed and my models are stacking up on the shelf, I would like to preserve them a little better. Since I already have applied the decals, is it still possible to apply a gloss coat, let dry, then apply a flat coat as necessary????
Also, I am a little hesitant about spraying Future through my airbrush because even acrylic paint clean-up in it is an arduous process. Does anyone recommend Testors Gloss and Dull Cote in a spray can??????
Any help and/or advice is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
