KingKade Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Posted by John Milne on 16/01/2014 20:33:52: I've always used the Tamiya acrylic thinners but I don't see why water can't be used, try it. For the varnish use Pledge Multi Surface Wax , it used to be sold as Johnsons Klear, (I get mine from Sainsburys), one bottle will last forever. It sounds wrong but it is a fantastic product for us modellers. spray or paint over the paint finish, then add decals and spray or paint over the decals again, it is also a fantastic base for adding various weathering processes. I also use it to give canopies a cystal clear look. For those of us with foam models it makes a fantastic sealing coat to protect decals and stops the foam getting grubby, it can painted on with a brush or sprayed and dries leaving a tough durable clear satin finish that weighs next to nothing and is very cheap.. Regards John I have a foam model and would like to protect the foam and seal the decals... What should i do just spray it over everything? A light mist?
