m3fan Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 I was wondering if anyone has used these paints over each other in either order? The reason is I like two colors from each line and want to do a two tone and use one of the brands clears. Thanks for any info, Russ
High octane Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 They should work just fine as I know builder who mixes & matches Testors & Tamiya paints all the time with great results. I have also mixed & matched Testors, HOK, & MCW with no problems.
TurboKitty Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 try a mix of different tests on cheap plastic spoons to get an idea of what paints & clears work together and which ones don't
High octane Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 While I don't paint spoons, many builders test paint spoons and it is an excellent idea to try paint colors and capatability on cheap plastic spoons. I've also heard of using empty plastic soda or water bottles as test bodies when learning to get the feel of an air brush or trying tecniques such as fading paint jobs, etc. This also works with rattle cans too as well as an air-brush.
Guest Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 I've sprayed the Testors one coat over the Tamiya with no problems. I also sprayed the TS-13 clear over Testors with no problems.
