  1. white makes yellow pop get a color wheel and practice mixing try your junior college for a color, light and pigment class
  2. if the finished paint is enamel i could understand the use of an enamel seal coat have you tried working with lacquer sprays from testor, the clear krylon sprays and/or omni two part urethanes through an air brush
  3. in a metal compass set that quill tip is SOP have tried a circle template and model master white lacquer spray primer on AMT tires with good results practicing now on a set of those big and littles from the '32 revell group
  4. this is very helpful-will try on the '40 ford pickup by mono
  5. try the easy off in the yellow can-the other stuff doesnt work as well get a gallon size zipping bag, drop in object to be stripped and cover with foam carefully close bag making sure to remove extra air in bag wait 30 minutes for most chrome/2-3 days for most paint rinse object-if material still remains repeat process paint object gloss black and spray with your choice of a clad finish remember hold airbrush at approx. 60 degree angle during passes apply 2 very light coats-too much and the reflective quality is diminished
