Hi fellow modellers.
I have just used Future as a gloss coat for the first time.
I normally use Enamel or Lacquer glosscoats that I would weather easily with acrylic/water based washes and chalk/pastel water sludges
My question now is this......
With Future being acrylic .........what are my choices now for weathering?????
Can I still use watered down acrylics or will that soften/remove the Future coat?
Should I now used thinned enamels or oils for washes and panel lines. But what do I thin them with and clean them up with??
What about the pre-made stuff like Flory or Tamiya washes? Are they suitable for using on a Klear topcoat??? if so what can you safely clean them off with?
I understand you shouldn't use ammonia based anything on Future to clean up (I believe) but is Isopropyl Alcohol or Methylated spirits okay.
Is MicroSol and Micro Set still okay for settling decals that have been applied on a Future gloss coat
Can you use water to clean up at all on a dried Furture Top coat or is that just not on.
Any list of fluids/materials/thinning agents/weathering agents/solvents/aftermarket or specialist products etc that can be used safely for weathering and panel line highlights on a Future gloss coat would be greatly appreciated.
Happy modelling everyone!
Cheers
Bruce
