I notice that Tamiya has new bottled lacquer paints. Just wondering if anyone has tried them on top standard(water based) Tamiya Acrylic?
Also, looking for some feedback on compatability of Vallejo Acrylic on top of Tamiya acrylic?

Re: Paint compatability new Tamiya?
Haven't tried them yet but lacquers and acrylics are rarely compatible. You can get away with Acrylics on top of lacquers but almost never the other way around. If you are going to try that, the try it on something you really don't care about.

Generally that's true... but I've shot TS13 over Tamiya acrylic with no problem. That said, I would do test before trying the new bottle lacquers over acrylic.
