Pros always spray a gloss coat before a flat coat to smooth out the edges. The extra layer of gloss is extremely important because flat coats scratch and chip very easily and can take the paint off with the chipping. Spraying a gloss coat not only smooths out the edges, but insurers the paint won't scratch easily. Gloss is the strongest top coat protection.

Very true. The best way to do it is to apply a gloss clear to your paint job for protection and because decals will adhere perfectly to the glossy finish. At this point you can even polish that coat AND the decals to make them seamless. After that apply your final clear coat (matte, semi gloss, or gloss depending on desired results)

A bit off-topic but when it comes to choosing between matte or glossy topcoat, I have learned the hard way that dust clings more to glossy than matte, and I had trouble cleaning up my old kits (I had changed to matte after my first few kits). So if you're like me and live in a dusty place (or just lazy and take ages to clean up lmao) this might be something to consider.
@WilliamChoochootrain
@WilliamChoochootrain Жыл бұрын
A good way to avoid that is to display your glossy kits in enclosed shelves with glass doors. That eliminates pretty much any chance of dust settling. I have stuff in my glass shelves that I haven't touched in nearly 10 years, and there's basically no dust on them. Just don't leave the shelf doors open for extended periods of time.

@@WilliamChoochootrain yeah glass shelves have been at the very top of my wishlist since my backlog started piling up, unfortunately space is very limited at home. Right now I'm resorting to just keeping the finished kits in their boxes (after taking action shots, of course), which is a damn shame 'cause you're not supposed to "cage the beast," you know what I mean? 😞 But someday soon hopefully! 😊

For those of you who think you need a gloss coat first before a decal is false. A smooth surface is what you typically need and the plasric is smooth enough. If applying to a textured or even curved piece, a decal softener is recommended. This info comes from the tank model kit community and works for all model kit decals tjat includes cars, planes, gunpla, ect.

What if the kit has a special finish? Like say for examples the Rg special coating sazabi is that kit even possible to apply water slides to?

no but if you have a spot that is (lower) that the sticker will not touch you put a lil softer on it for 10s them push on it to get it to bend down into the hole/grove. I know this is a old comment but wanted to help other's asmuch as i needed it o7

1. Dee-cal. #2 sounds too much like D*ckle. On Dry Transfers.. That's a really bad idea to take the parchment (not wax) paper off and hand them, put them on skin. Natural oils we secret can ruin then/make them nearly impossible to apply properly. So, please avoid that, unless you're looking to make the kit weathered and have scratched/dinged up markings. xD There's also Metallic Dry Rubs by DelpiDecal, that apply pretty much the same way as normal Dry Rubs, but they have two layers of film protecting them (at least the way they make them). Sam warning about moisture applies. The edge removal of clear stickers takes many layers of clear coating and wet sanding. (JENIC has a nice video you can use for reference here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ruB1lsty3bqaXYk.html)
