Okay, YEARS ago, and I think it might have had to do with weathering more then just painting a model. I remember reading an article that gave the “proper” order for laying down the different types of paint. But for the life of me, I can not now remember what that order was, can anyone help?
IF one DOES have to “mix” different types paints on a model, say because a particular color that they want is for whatever reason NOT available in their preferred type of paint would it be safe to presume that IF I am correct in that the article I have a vague recollection of was about weathering would the same order of application apply to general painting? Also how would one handle the areas where two or more different types of paint meet?
I’m thinking, because “Future” floor wax, which IF I am not mistaken, is an acrylic, is applied last to seal both the paint and decals and/or is applied to a model prior to a model as a means of providing a uniform surface to apply the decals to and then depending on the subject of the model i.e. military craft vs. civilian craft a matte finish or gloss finish can be applied over the decals to not only seal them, but to provide the appropriate finish, again either a matte or a gloss finish, correct?
