Hi all, I started modelling a few years back but stopped due to other commitments.. Now I wanted to re-start this hobby and needed some help along the way. I just bought my first set of airbrush and compressor, still experimenting and having fun.
I loved F-16s and is currently working on one. I tried applying a layer of clear coat after the decals are done and my paintwork all turned cloudy and eventually white when it dries. All the paints I am using are of enemal base including the clear coat. I wondered what went wrong and really appreciate some advices. Thanks guys.
