Hi, I have been painting models for a long time and have had pretty good paint results. Recently, I have been experiementing using Gloss overcoats for a more glossy showroom finish.
I have also experiemented with painting a few light layers within 30 minutes before the enamel paint starts to cure. I used to only do 1 light coat at a time and wait a few days to a week for it to fully cure before applying another coat.
I know to get dust out of paint, you usually wet sand it. But what do you do with the final color coat or gloss coat that you cannot sand? If I sand it, it won't be gloss anymore.
It seems like glosscoats are harder to apint dustless? Why is this?
I even tried putting a plastic (large translucent tupperware-type container over the wet model body after painting to reduce dust but it seems like this way attracts the same if not more dust. I don't think there is static electricity in the container.
I usually spray in a home-made large cardboard box spray booth and it works good. i just want to learn how to paint perfect, showroom shine models with no dust in the paint.
Thanks!!!
