Greetings oh exalted experts of the model car world; I've been looking around the internet and really haven't found solid answers, so I thought I would ask the experts here. I normally do armor, aircraft, and some sci-fi and ships, but lately have been bitten by the Muscle Car bug. I've got a Revell 70 Challenger ready to paint. Wanting it to look good and not being a fan of normal (Testors/Krylon) rattle can paints, I decided to go with Dupli-color to paint the body and get a more accurate color (especially after Krylon went on terribly and I had to strip it and sand away the marring it did to the body). So I've put on several thin coats and am very happy with the results; it went on thinly and didn't hide or distort any detail. It also went on flat, which I figure isn't a problem. I think I know the answers to the following questions/observations, but want to be sure: 1. Does Dupli-color go on flat and need a clear/gloss coat to bring out the shine? (with some wet sanding to smooth it out prior to application; I've started rubbing it down with a paper towel as a very fine grit sander and it is already bringing out a shine) 2. Can I use Pledge/Future to clear coat the body or am I better off hitting my local auto parts store (or maybe Wally World) and get Dupli-color clear to seal and gloss the body? 3. I plan on hand brushing details (like turn signals, the battery, and other items in the engine bay) before clear coating. So far, so good? 4. I also want to use Bare-Metal foil for the chrome trim and think this should go on last after clear coating? I really like Dupli-color so far, very easy to use. I'm also getting into airbrushing and looking forward to using it as well to see if I can get my skills to a higher level. I've started collecting car kits and am looking forward to having a small fleet of cars down the road. And in advance, thanks for taking the time to read this and answer my questions! Doug
