Worried About The Decals

[Hillbilly Deluxe]

Hey all

I am building a 69 Z28, and am painting it with Testors light gray metallic lacquer base/clear,

will the kit decals be safe or will this type of clear damage them?

Also what is the best type of primer for this kind of paint?

Thanks

John

Any type of automotive primer surfacer will work, such as the ones from Duplicolor, Napa, Bondo, or the Tamiya Primers are fanatastic, but pricey

The clear should be okay over the decals just make sure you let them dry for as long as you can before you spray the clear

Always use light mist coats with the primer

It can craze the plastic if shot on too wet and fast

The new Testors Lacquers don't need primers

I shot the new Revell `49 Merc last weekend on straight plastic

Came out great!!!!
