I need some advice on which Gloss Coat and Dull coat work well with Tamiya and Vallejo acrylic paints. I will be airbrushing, so if thinning is required please mention that as well. What do you guys use for Gloss and Dull coat over these paints?
Thanks!
Boris
I use Alclads over everything.
I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so
On the bench: Airfix 1/72nd Harrier GR.3/Fujimi 1/72nd Ju 87D-3
Alclad and sometimes Vallejo
Alclad's Matte is Lacquer
They make an acrylic Aqua Gloss as well as a Lacquer Gloss
Future for gloss, Vallejo matt acrylic varnish for flat.
(Over Tamiya acrylics, which I use almost exclusively. No thinner needed for the Future; the Vallejo thins nicely with Tamiya X-20A.)

Liquatex acrylic varnish straight from the bottle into the airbrush.
I have used Testors lacqeur Glosscoat and Dullcoat for about four decades now. They are still my gotos. I find I can use them over both enamels and acrylics. They dry fast, and decals go down very nicely on Glosscoat.
I have also used Polyurethane, but it has a long dry time. The only use I have for it is that they have a clear satin. A satin/semi-matt is the one thing lacking in Testors clearcoats.
