How to paint with the best results possible?

[Trucklover]

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

Polly Scale paints clean up with water, and you can use water to thin it out for spraying with an airbrush. I use Isopropyl Alcohol to thin Polly Scale paints, doing that speeds up the drying time , thats just MY preferance :mrgreen: .

i use water for clean up on Polly Scale paints, not alcohol.

Charlie and Denao, thanks guy for the advise on the thinners. I havnt decided which paints i will be using yet, but i think that Floquil has more of the colors i will be using, or maybe it was the other way around LOL i cant member

I like the idea of faster drying with Polly Scale when you add Isopropyl Alcohol to thin them, so thats what ill be doing

Charlie, when you say "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." what exactly do you mean by making sure you put the paint on dry?
