One thing I forgot to mention, Mission Model paint over bare plastic will scratch VERY easily so use a good primer first.

Pretty kitty, PJ!

As far as paints go, have you tried any of the MRP stuff?  Full, rock-hard cure in less than an hour, and its tough as nails.

Thanks Eagle. Yes it's excellent paint but like Tamiya is an acrylic lacquer that bonds great to bare plastic unlike the water based paints like Mission Models. Still a great paint that sprays beautifully and levels out great, just has a not so strong bond to bare plastic.
