future and painting

It' s inexpensive. Look at the price on the bottle. Calculate the price per gallon.

Now do the same for a typical coating product made for models.

Pick up your teeth from the floor.

Add to that, Future is, as a coating, superior by far to anything of that sort "made for models."

What is more, it will do things those products don't do well, if at all.

Okay, thank you.    As I had mentioned, I had never heard of using this before I saw it mentioned here. Was just very curious. Thanks again!

the only downside (if you can call it that) is it only comes in high gloss, also ive noticed a couple threads of it discolouring whites where masking tape has been (one that springs to mind was one that went pink) 

couldn't agree more; were it not for Klear I wouldn't be making models-I use it to set decals amongst many many other things. I'd never heard of such a thing when I was a kid in the 60's so didn't know they existed when I took up the hobby again 10 yrs ago. Trevor Snowden of Airfix told me about it and I haven't looked back since

There are multiple uses for Future, I use it gloss coating for decals and as an  paint sealer since I use acrylics. Its also fantastic for coating clear parts on models such as aircraft canopies or windshields/windows for car kits. It also acts as a barrier to prevent "fogging" on clear parts glued on with super glue or model glue.
