Testor's Lacquer Dullcote From a Can

A few thoughts...

1: Whats the humidity in your area?

2:  How long did you let it dry before posting this picture ? If it's sprayed on slightly thicker than normal it may need more drying time.

 

 3: How long did you shake the can? It looks like it's not mixed quite right.

 

I believe it's not mixed. You may want to spray a light coat of glosscote to take care of the "fogging" effect then once thats dry hit it with the dullcote again.

I have had this happen to me and thats how I fixed it.... However  I dont want you to  ruin your paint job just because you listened to me sooo... please wait for a few more members to chime in before you try this.

 

Somethings going on folks!

I used a spray can of Tamiya fine white primer today on two big models that I'm building at the same time.

Fish eyes! WTH?

 I think in this case the paint was too cold. I left the cabn outside in the sun during the session, but I'm now thinking that the last round was at about 5.00 pm and the air was down in the 60's.

Another possability is the mold releasing agent that the modeling company uses to release the parts from the mold. Its greasy and sometimes invisable.

I clean parts with dishwashing soap and in extreme cases I soak the parts in vinagar and even alcohaul.

 

Thanks for the help littletimmy! I checked on it again this morning and it looked much better, I had to really get in close to see it. The humidity must be causing the drying times to be longer. I was just really confused because I don't remember seeing this happen before.

Wait...what?... Somthing I suggested actually helped ???

Quick wheres my wife.......  she will never beleve this!

( I can hear her eyes rolling back now. )
