Klear Use
Posted by AdrianUK on Wednesday, November 30, 2011 12:28 PM

Hi,

I'm about to use Klear for the first time on my model kits, I know about leaving it a few days between coats, but what I was wondering is do i need to dilute it at all and what do I use as a cleaner fon my airbrush after?

Thanks in advance

You don't have to thin it to use, but it can be thinned with Tamiya acrylic thinners (X-20A) for improved application with an airbrush. For clean up use Windex or something similar which contains ammonia.

I've been to all the supermarkets around me and not found any Windolene in any, is this still available, or is there something else I can use?

If you're in the UK the easiest thing is to nip into Homebase and buy a bottle of household ammonia. It's only a couple of quid and cleans Klear up a treat. If you're about to use Klear for the first time i found this link to be very, very useful. http://www.swannysmodels.com/TheCompleteFuture.html
