Scale Finishes Acrylic Enamel

[GeeBee]

A good friend is sending me some of Scalefinishes for the '68 Dodge Charger I'm going to be starting soon, now they list the paint as Acrylic Enamel, which is ready to airbrush, now most of my builds I use old school Cellulose lacquer, so I'm not used to using Acrylic paints.

The colour I am getting is UU-1, light blue metallic, which according the Scalefinishes, it doesn't need clear coating,

Now I have a few questions to anyone who has used there paints :-

If the paint does need thinning, what's the best to thin it with ?

Does it need clear coating, and if so, what's the best to use ?

I'm going to be using my Paasche H airbrush, what's the best pressure to use with this airbrush and paint.

I hope someone can give me a few tips before the paint arrives, so I'm ready to crack on with the build soon.

Ignore the "acrylic" part because it's not at all like an acrylic hobby paint. It's an automotive acrylic enamel, which is a totally different beast. Refer to the Scalefinishes application guide here:

Hope this helps

No need to thin and no need to clear over it. The Paasche should spray fine at 20-25 psi.
