Just a suggestion. If that is the mica blue you can use silver leaf first and then put the mica blue on top. it makes the color a little brighter but shine so much more even without a clear over it. It seems to make all the mica colors just beautiful.

I’m going to have to 100% disagree with you about not being able to get a glossy finish with cans. The reason YOU can’t get a glossy flat finish is your technique. First mistake was your second and third colour coats should wet coats. When you said to quickly mist on the final colour coat I cringed. All you did was add texture, taking away from the flatness. Your clear coating, the first one should be a mist coat and the rest should be slow and wet. Any dry spot will become textured. If the clear coats are sprayed wet the finish should be very glossy. You just might have orange peal from the high pressure of the cans. For cars I actually prefer to use canned clear because of how much sprays out.

@TheScalemodelingChannel
8 жыл бұрын
Aah ok, thats a different story indeed. The basic idea behind this is as follows: The bond between the tape and paint is stronger then the bond between the paint and the body. In this case the stronger bonds wins, resulting in the paint peeling off of the body along with the paint. You need to sand the body before you apply primer, i and with 600 grit. After this you can apply paint, or sand the primer with 1000 grit for the paint to stick better. If this is all done correctly the paint should not peel off with the tape.
