This is the clear I used . Dry in 30 min. handle in two hours . So it says . 

I'll have to look for this as the regular Duplicolor Clear Coat I bought wasn't any good. It looked just the same before and after I sprayed it. Then I tried the Rustoleum Acrylic clear coat. That looked better. The disaster hit. LOL

The Black Hole strikes again- I had been fabricating a hinge from brass channel- bent, cut, hinge holes drilled- and while beginning- literally- to do some final shaping, it flew out of the pliers and into- THE BLACK HOLE! It's my model room- it's a relatively confined space- but it has lots of stuff- open boxes of stuff- and I can't find it. I did hear it hit something- no idea what- and now I have to decide whether to start over (possible, but somewhat less enthusiastically engaged upon), or to continue looking (pulling more things apart)- or hope I suddenly see it looking at me with that "what- me?" look on its face.

Found it- definitely had the "what- me?" look- saved more time looking for it than refabricating it!

Glad you found it..

Tried to glue my 1928 Lincolns body to the fenders and it wouldn't stay in place. Screwed the paint on both parts, I'm about ready to smash this thing!

I spent another evening cursing at my 36 Ford!  I have screwed on the chassis and removed it again at least three times.
