Stang88 Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Hey guys, new to car modelling and looking for advice before I paint my first body. I have heard the debates of enamels thinned with laqueor thinner is the way to go as no primer coat needed (Don Yosts way), but a few issues, I don't have an airbrush, I have searched high and low where I live (Canada) and can not find Novus or The Treatment wax anywhere. I have a Canadian Tire that sells Duplicolor, huge selection but I assume these laqueor paints are hot and need a primer, but with primer and then paint from spray cans I am concerned with hiding details with all these paint coats. And what would be the best clear coat for these. What car polish and wax would be the best in this case? Then there is Tamiya, no primer required, heard the sprays are pricy but beautiful, i also heard you have to wait forever to clear coat Tamiya spray paints with Tamiya clear coat, is this true? How long? And what would be the best car polish and wax for these types of paints/ Would appreciate all the feedback and guideance you can all provide.
John Pol Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 You can get the wax and that from Micro Mark tools. I live in Canada to and thats where I get it from. I use Canadian spray paint all the time. The other spray paint you talk about has a real strong order if you plan to paint inside the house that is. John Pol
