Usage of Future polish
Posted by pathvet9 on Saturday, August 30, 2008 7:34 PM

My first attempt to use Future and I am dipping some painted weapons in and draining them. Am finding that a black acrylic paint used for the fins is streaking and I waited 48 hours to do the application.

Anyone else have this complication?  Question [?]   Banged Head [banghead]

I've never had that problem, though typically I airbrush Future on. On smaller parts I'll brush it on. Maybe give that a try?

Dip canopies or clear parts. Everything else gets sprayed or brushed.

I suspected it must be something like that! Sure wish I had asked first as I now have a big clean-up. Am going to try to remove polish and paint smears with Windex and start again. Time wasted but things learned. Next time!   Sign - Oops [#oops]

BTW, the canopies came out GREAT!!  Big Smile [:D]

As only a beer drinker from Boston could possibly know. You MUST have come from Boston to remain a Bruins fan!?
