Polly Scale paints

I am not sure about thinning but some people I know that uses Polly Scale spray right from the bottle. Yes, it is made by Testors. Testor bought them oout a few years ago. I also am not sure about price. I would go to your LHS and see what they can get it for and then go to the Testors website and see how much to order from them. I would take the cheapest route. I hear they are good paints. Also, Micro Mark sells Polly Scale. I hope this helps.

It's good paint, but the colors I've used are already very, very thin. It says on the bottle that if necessary to thin it 10%-20% using water (mine is acrylic, I am assuming that it all is). I haven't found it necessary to thin it yet.

I didn't notice the price on the colors I got. The LHS didn't have what I needed in anything but PolyScale so I got them. I like it, and have had good results with it.

Yeah dont thin Polly scale, its good to go. $3 seems bit high to me but I am cheap lol

Steve,
Polly Scale is very good. Polly Scale makes a thinner for thier paints it's
#546008 in an 8oz. bottle . It retails around $6. I use sodium free distilled water
in the gallon jug that usually costs $1 dollar or less. It's cheap and also works
great for decals and airbrush cleanup immediatly after use.
When I thin Polly Scale paint I start with one SMALL drop 10%of water and
that's usually enough . I also keep a damp paper towel to clean the airbrush tip .
For me it's worth every penny .

Another question;
What finish does Poly Scale come in? Flat or satin or gloss?
Fuzzy, Musiccity, Woodbeck3 and Snoopy thanks for the responses.

Steve; Polly Scale paints are flat finish...I have used Polly Scale paints for years almost exclusively. I use their thinner, about 20-25%. My signature is painted entirely with Polly Scale paints and it's a show winner, several times over.

Can you mix in their satin or gloss to make a custom finish?
