Has anyone used the model master flat black? Both spray, and brush on?

[Ramfins59]

i use the brush on jar paint.  Never had any problems with it.  Be sure to keep it well mixed or stirred up for best coverage.

I use model master semi gloss in the jar, and rich is right about keeping it mixed. l like krylon flat black much better the model master spray flat black....

I've used both and like them.

for sprays, I like to buy large cans of black at NAPA. They carry it in lacquer and can get flat, semi, and gloss. Lasts a long time and very economical. Like Rich, I use the jar acryl black paints and make sure I shake and stir them well before using. I like the easy clean up and fast drying properties of those paints.

Thank you for the replies. Now I don't get to use my brush paints very often. How should I keep them fresh? I have several acrylics that I never use, just because I can't get them to work like enamels do. I had my favorite semi gloss black at walmart, now they don't carry it. Regular Krylon comes out too watery for me.

I will check auto stores out, and buy the model master.
