PAINT FRUSTRATIONS
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, January 19, 2004 3:41 PM
I am very confused! I airbrusheda model of mine in Badger Acyrlic AIr Opaque paint and when i try to apply games workshop acyrlic or testors acyrlic clear coat my badger paint dissolves and mixes with the paint im applying. I thought that maybe it wasnt dry, but i tried the two kinds of paints on another model i airbrushed months ago with the same bottle of Badger it came off too!

Also, when i tried painting the clear coat onto my games workshop acrylics, it comes off too.

WHAT IS WRONG?

It sounds like the laquer from the sealer coat is attacking and dissolving the acrylic paint binders and the reaction is mixing and sludging your model. Try putting a couple of coats of Future or Mop & Glow Floor wax over the top of the acrylic paint to protect your paint. Afterwards you can put your favorite sealer coat on.
