If I use acrylic paint, how do I wet sand it? If any water comes in contact with my acrylic jobs, it washes away or just makes a huge smudge. Also I am wondering how I can apply waterslide decals to acrylic paint.

Can I polish a flat paint to make it glossy, or must it only be on the gloss coat?

I believe that Steve is referring to this: Correct me if I'm wrong, especially because I hope to use the right one.

Are these cut and polishes nonspecific to the clear coat paint type laid down?

PERFECT. I have kinda been looking for this solution for a little while. Before I invested in sprays, I wanted to know if there was a way to brush paint. Maybe you could make a tutorial?

I truly admire your work, and certainly I am one for realism, which for me most importantly is the perfect body job. I'm totally down for the time of polishing, and honestly it sounds worth it (possibly fun too). So I'm wondering what you use for your wet sanding and polishing? The same goes for you Trevor, I would like to know what you use to polish. Also, do either of you use any kind of wax or anything after polishing?

The thing is, he uses enamel...

Ok I will try this, thank you.

This is Tamiya fine surface primer white, Tamiya ts53, and finally a mr super clear gloss. Im really upset with the texture I’ve made, I was expecting to see the perfect mirror finish shown everywhere online. How do I get rid of this, and what caused this?

I would use an airbrush in an instant if only I had fundings for a compressor.

Tamiya fine surface primer. I would never use rustoleum

This is my primer coat. ?

That is my primer layer.

I use an old spray can with some double sided tape

By the way, my test spoon has gotten worse. I don’t know how, I haven’t done anything to it.

The polishing cloths have grits?

I’m new to polishing, do I need a new cloth between each compound? Also how can I wash/clean my cloth?

I’m missing a lot of spots with a spray can, is there a way I can get better coverage, especially in those detailed spots?

You can polish the base coat without a clear coat?

Would it be safe for me to continue and gloss coat it, or would the same texture prevail?

I’m using Tamiya fine surface white primer underneath a Tamiya TS metallic. Am I just being super nitpicky or is there a way to improve the quality of my paint job? Notice around the edges of the light reflections are slightly fuzzy.

Tamiya acrylic

If I’m using acrylic base coat, which is better. Also I’d prefer to use 1k so that I don’t have to worry about the activation solution.

How come I have seen SO MANY spectacular results purely from rust-oluem paints?
