Hi Charlie, thanks for the tips and suggestions 
I plan on using Floquil and Polly Scale Paints. Whats a good thinner to use with these paints?[/quote]
I use lacquer thinner with floquil however it WILL DISSOLVE MOST plastics so you have to be very sure you put the paint on dry. With this it is best to practice with an old cheap ho car. Just apply enough paint so it goes on wet but flashes dry instantly. Keep in mind that I have been spray painting for 45 years and can get away with a lot. Use in a well ventilated area.
I never used any PolyScale however I read somewhere to use alcohol for thinner.
As with everything it takes practice. Good Luck
Charlie
