                        It may sound stupid, but have you tried watercolors? Won't damage the surface and if you mess up a damp rag or q-tip will clean it up for you.

                        What kind of paint are you using for your wash? Arcylic or enamel? Did you put down a clear coat to seal the underlying paint?

                        I have a USS Enterpirse 1701-A. I have applied the base coat and most of the assembly. What I would like to do is use a thinned black to go over the model to darken the recessed groves in the model to give it the "realistic look". I tried this and went to wipe off the excess and smeared the base coat. What is the best way to do this??
