QUOTE (Masa @ April 27, 2007 11:01 pm)

As you surmised, Mr Super Clear is intended to be a final coat. You need to try Mr. Top Coat, especially with acrylic paints as Mr. Super Clear is solvent based and tends to be too agressive. Mr Top Coat works great with their aqueous water-soluable paint line and should work great for your in-between sealing coats

Thanks Masaaki,

I learn something everyday.....sometimes the hard way.

It has not been an easy trail. I guess being out of practice is one thing, the other "excuse" would be the lack of doggone time I have to do these things. Anyway, I hope to finish a bit more soon.

I knocked back the gloss a bit to not make the kit look too mannequin-like. Attached Image -------------------- "What we do in life, echoes in eternity."

With the rough handling of items in the postal system, I do not think a fully assembled one will survive the trek to New Zealand. *finis* a hui hou, Attached Image -------------------- "What we do in life, echoes in eternity."
