Researched full paint order for my first time (advice and corrections would be great)
I’ll be painting my first model so I’ve done research on how to do it. Here are the steps I came up with. I haven’t started yet so any suggestions and advice would be greatly appreciated. The model is a motorbike
General Notes
Wash your hands frequently to avoid finger grease.
Allow parts to dry before going to next step, or next layer
1. Wash parts with warm water and detergent while in spruce
(ア) Dry naturally
2. Determine what parts to paint in the spruce and what to glue and build
3. Apply primer to painting parts
(ア) Dry
(イ) May need to sandpaper down to hide seams
4. Mix paint with thinner (more thinner than paint) and apply thin coats. Brush strokes do not overlap, and paint in one direction. Let dry between coats.
(ア) Possible wash
5. Polish with sandpaper and rubbing compound and then apply decal before or after clear coat, depending on decal effect.
I’m wondering about gluing on painted parts, does the paint or clear coat affect adhesion?
