Hello all
I have been spraycanning a few layers of Glosscote on my non-painted Helicopter model(It was pre-molded in red,but the interior is still being painted to prevent transparency)for decals.What I did was:
1.Shake the can for 2 minutes
2.Put the can in hot water for 10 minutes
3.Shook the can another 2 minutes
I sprayed at room temperature into a cardboard box with a lid(yes,it's not very ideal),and I only noticed peeling after it dried,and after I put the decals on with Microset/Sol,the GlossCote just peeled right off with the scratch of my fingernails!Is it the fact that I didn't use paint,or that the Microset ruined it?
Thanks
Max
