great video man, I like to scrap the edges after spraying with a toothpick, sharpens it up some,, that p-38 (i think?) looks great in OD

why not put the gloss coat before masking? wouldn't that protect it a bit against scratching? i haven't tried it myself but i assume worst case scenario you can easily sand the raised areas a bit if the paint doesn't stick

I can't remember if I said that in the video. But yes you can gloss coat it by dipping it in future or pledge and let that dry for a day before Masking.

I’m working on the Revell Memphis Bell it does not have the raise canopy what the best way to mask it because the only way I see liquid mask 🤷 I’m stumped

10:40 - May I ask why you gloss-coated and matte-coated? Because of decals? Thanks and thanks for your videos!

@asdf9890 6 ай бұрын

I’m by no means experienced, but a gloss prior to placing decals helps avoid silvering by smoothing the surface. Then matte helps to hide the edges, seal in the decal, and more closely match the flat military color of the planes. Not sure I’d bother with gloss under matte just on the canopy though.

How does the blade not scratch the canopy or chip it? Thanks!!

@ScaleModellingVideos 2 жыл бұрын

You need to find the correct pressure to apply. This comes with time and experience. Always use a new blade and practice on a spare piece first.

What does the dipping in Pledge do?

@ScaleModellingVideos 2 жыл бұрын

It protects the canopy fron future scratching. It also helps gloss it up.

Nothing special ..it's the normal way to do any canopy... though you cannot just pull the mask off after a clear coat ...it will rip the paint off ..you first need to re blade the edges first . Why a 3rd clear coat on the inside ? You dunked it twice ....
