I did on my experiment but it chipped down to the plastic surface. Each layer had dried for about 15 min. Do I have to let the base layer dry for several hours first?
I just attempted hiarspray chipping on an aircraft as I think it looks the most realistic. So after two attempts I just can't seem to get it to work. This is what I did:
Primer-let dry overnightTamiya flat aluminum-let dry overnightHairspray from airbrush-let dryTop coat Tamiya Olive Drab thinned with Mr Surfacer Leveling thinner.The top coat dried for a few days before I was able to get back to the model and when I applied water and rubbed with a brush the paint would not start to come off no matter how long I did it. Even with a toothpick scratch to get it started it was next to impossible to get the top layer to chip. Even with the toothpick it was difficult to remove the top layer.
So then I did an experiment on old unpainted wing from my scrap pile.
no primerTamiya flat aluminum-let dry 15 minhairspray-let dry 15 mintop coat-let dry 15 min and used a hair dryer to make sure
Upon adding water to the surface and gentle rubbing with a brush the paint did start to peel but down to the plastic surface.
So what am I doing wrong? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
