I've mostly been an aircraft modeler, but I now find myself shiting gears (pun intended) and moved over to autos for the time being. I have several kits on or near the bench, including a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T with a prepainted metal body (think Vanishing Point movie!), 1968 Chevelle SS (I used to own the real thing), 1967 GTO and a recent addition of a 1966 Ford F-100 pickup from Moebius.
Mostly I've always used Testors MM paints, but you all know that story, so I am wondering what paints are now best for autos and how to acheive those high gloss finishes. The GTO is being painted with Testors dark blue out of the little square bottle and the Chevelle is being done with a Master Red (I forget the shade) and I hope I have enough to finish it.
How best to acheive those really glossy finishes for autos? I mostly airbrush.
Thanks
